Founded in 1996, Hosfelt Gallery has distinguished itself through the introduction of
exceptional new artists from around the world, the intellectual rigor of its
programming, its role in nurturing the careers of now internationally-renowned artists,
a commitment to showing work that doesn’t necessarily align with current trends, and
representation of some of the most important artists of the Bay Area and beyond. In 2012

Kathryn Arnold
- Paintings
Kathryn Arnold is an artist working primarily with painting. Applying abstraction,
Arnold formalizes the coincidental and emphasizes conscious process of composition.
Colors in Arnold's paintings are variously jewel-like or subtly muted. The paint's
texture varies, drawing the viewer in. In Kathryn's own words, "I allow for intense
optical mixing as layers build upon each other with translucent effects integrating both
on canvas and in the eye. I build up surfaces with marks. As I work, I notice a sense of
personality and emotive nature developing and pursue it. Poetic gestures reveal the
diaphanous character of thoughts and associations (processes of mind) in substantial and
solid form." Located in San Francisco. Website:
