ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Kevin KEHOE

ALTAMIRA FINE ART SCOTTSDALE az@altamiraart.com

Utah artist Kevin Kehoe calls himself a “New American Painter” because he observes the world around him through a keen lens. Finding joy in seeing uncommon beauty in common places and discovering the unbiased loveliness that light casts on all. Light and composition are paramount to what he paints and why.

Kehoe attend the Art Institute of Boston and grew up wonderfully inspired by the work of masters like Edward Hopper, John Singer Sargent, Andrew Wyeth, Winslow Homer, Johan Vermeer, Vincent Van Gogh, John Register, Georgia O’Keefe and Maynard Dixon, just to name a few. Kehoe lives in Utah’s majestic Heber Valley and is inspired by the Wasatch and Uinta mountain ranges that surround his studio. His wife, daughter Kate, and rescue dog Ranger live in a log cabin in the foothills of the Uinta Mountains.

ART CATALOG “My new series of nocturnal paintings celebrate the beauty that electric light has against a Western night. When the sun surrenders to the wattage of night, the mundane of day gets transformed into scenes that captivate. As a painting challenge, darkness interrupted by light has offered me beautiful palette possibilities, calming compositions and the reward offered by opposite elements beautifully struck.�
