About Grace
Greatly influenced by the variety and palette of her childhood in India, artist Grace McKee emerges as a master of color as transposed through texture. The treatment of her subject matter is alive with an innate vibrancy, each brushstroke akin to a metaphoric heartbeat. McKee's paintings are reminiscent of pastoral Renaissance scenes illustrating a romanticized utopia. However, unlike the bawdy and grandiose manner in which Pastoral subjects are typically rendered, McKee chooses to reflect a sensibility rooted in the real, offering a locus of desire which is in fact tangible and soft on the senses.
Collective worldly beauty, an impervious attention to subtle textural nuances, and an eye for color are at the core of Grace McKee's painting. She allows a space for the viewer to reflect, pleasing the eye and the countenance. McKee entices the viewer to touch and ultimately feel her brushstrokes, reflecting a certain warmth and and gentle affability common to each of her works.
