Told in an abundance of thickly painted and kaleidoscopic brushstrokes, Kristen Olson Stone’s London Garden is an impressionist-inspired work with a robust fauvist palette. The rich impasto is in a league of its own. The daubs and dashes of thickly applied oil paint bring the painting into a physical space that flirts with three-dimensionality. The pigment consumes the canvas like the flowers and vegetation consume the urban garden it depicts. The density of the mark-making and the wealth of color further draw London Garden into any room it occupies and, accordingly, bring the viewer into the composition. The present work is undeniable proof that a painting does not require an imposing scale to impart an imposing presence.

Thank you for writing this beautiful review of, “London Garden “. I enjoy the process of painting with thick paint and a palette knife. I express my emotions towards the landscapes I paint through an impressionist use of color and light.

"Color and light" really hits the nail on the head for me. It feels like a reflection of all life told through a small but dynamic instantiation of it!

I totally love this! The thick alla prima paint done with a palette knife depicts this garden impeccably.

I see that John wrote about your work--well deserved! Do you have a website and/or do you ever teach via zoom or like one on one? I woke up thinking about your painting; tonight is my last class with my favorite teacher sorry if TMI. Anyway bottom line this is fantastic.
