Kevin Morris

Kevin Morris is a Kansas City based artist who creates representational paintings in the spirit of figurativism. A colorist with a strong commitment to form and light, Morris combines direct observation and expressive color to create representations that juxtapose planes of flattened space with realistic images that convey depth and plays of light. He studies art closely, borrowing from the techniques and habits of the fauvist, and pop art movements, and particularly the post-impressionist avant garde artists of Les Nabis such as Pierre Bonnard. He is interested in giving presence, depth, and space to small, seemingly insignificant, ephemeral things such as flowers, bugs, or interior scenes of domestic life.
