Katherine Lewis’ technical mastery is undeniable. Her works resonate with a refined elegance, each brushstroke carefully considered, yet never losing the fluidity that breathes life into her figures. She captures the human form with grace, revealing a deeply feminine sensibility—her figures are not just painted but inhabited, their expressions and postures exuding presence. Her pieces evoke a sense of timelessness—modern yet clearly indebted to the traditions that came before her.
