Kelsey Lowes is an abstract artist from Ontario, Canada.
She established her style of work through exploring texture and movement. Over time she gravitated towards solely working with a palette knife.
Kelseys work draws in the eye by subtle textures that are created with acrylics and various mediums like charcoal and oil pastel. She focuses on creating a level of contrast in her body of work that draws the viewer into each detail.
When Kelseys work is seen up close and personal, each piece explodes with a chaotic mess of textures, layers and colour. However, as the viewer steps back, those small details fade into a cohesive piece, tying each mark together. Her work has been know for its balanced calmness, and also its ability to evoking different perspectives from its viewers.
This painting, titled “White Noise,” is a richly textured acrylic piece created with a palette knife. It blends neutral tones—soft whites, creams, and greys—with bold, contrasting blacks to create a dynamic, abstract composition that evokes movement and subtle energy. The layered textures and organic transitions between light and dark give it a balanced yet striking presence, perfect for modern or minimalist spaces seeking depth and quiet drama.
