About the Artist KATHLEEN WATERLOO was awarded her B.F.A. by the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1996. Prior to that, she pursued her career as an Interior Architect for over 20 years. She is continually active with lectures, memberships and inclusion in many national juried exhibitions.
WATERLOO'S encaustic paintings are based upon an architectural vernacular. The abstract vocabulary in her work references plans, elevations, maps and landscapes as sources, both in terms of subject matter and compositional structure. The encaustic application, by contrast, is thickly layered, partially transparent, and aggressively expressed with drips, irregularities, and vibrant color.
The dichotomy between physical and psychological space is apparent in WATERLOO'S paintings, and a lack of precision and tightness in rendering allows for a sense of inhabited spacepresence within a space rather than a spatial emptiness or void.
