Marjorie
Kinney's
full
palette
of
romantic
colors
speaks
for the
picturesque
days she
spends
painting
"en
plein
air,"
the
French
word for
painting
on
location.
Marjorie
Kinney's
paintings
are
often
likened
to Monet
or other
famous
impressionists
who also
painted
en plein
air,
however
the
symphony
of
bright
colors
in her
painting
style is
derived
from the
way
light
waves
cross
the
Mediterranean
belt
which
extends
across
Southern
California
skies.

Artist
Statement
“Each
year we
artists
who
actively
paint
find
ourselves
seeking
new
subjects,
new
directions
and new
inspiration.
It is
what
makes us
grow and
remain
interested
in our
art.
For
years I
have
sought
out new
ways of
expressing
my
passion
for
painting
out my
restlessness
on
canvas.
This
year was
no
different.
While I
continue
to find
painting
coastline
landscapes
stimulating,
I have
gravitated
to
abstract
expressionism.
I enjoy
working
on large
canvases
and
painting
large
curves,
lines
and
squares,
sometimes
with a
brush,
other
times
with my
hands,
fingers,
rollers,
or just
pouring
paint on
the
canvas.
Background
music
plays a
big part
in
helping
me lose
myself
in the
subject.
My IPOD
shuffles
500
songs,
featuring
jazz,
Hawaiian,
Gregorian
Chants,
opera,
classical
and
pop.”
