When you look at a Kate Long painting, you want to linger. The typical works are vivid but subtle, exhuberant but sly. She has a gift for mystery and quiet drama. Many of her figures, when she wants to be figurative, are bright ghosts--children, dancers--captured through a mist, surprised and happy. Her abstract paintings are puzzles one wants to study and never solve. She creates mood with brilliant, surprising color choices. In form, she is a master of physical grace, tension, and power. She was a dancer, and that background pervades her draftsmanship.
A native of Greensboro, North Carolina, Kate has loved art since childhood. With tremendously supportive parents, she immersed herself in painting, music (she played the violin for years), classical ballet and creative writing. The influence and passion of each is apparent in her work. In a personal sense, dance gave her poise, making her acutely aware as a painter of the body's possiblities and limits. Kate's love of music lends itself more to her artistic process. She jokes that she cannot paint without classical music blaring, remembering that Gertrude Stein once wrote, "A writer should write with his eyes and a painter paint with his ears."
Kate graduated cum laude form the The University of the South (Sewanee), with a B.A in Studio Art. Though she took art seriously in her teens and attended North Carolina's Governor's School, her greater focus in college was influenced by a strong teacher. She was encouraged to combine her love of history and painting in her freshman thesis, with enormous portraits of the Romanov family. A campus exhibit soon followed. While still a student, Kate found representation at the Tyler White Gallery in Greensboro. Her academic life also gave her chances to travel and grow intellectually--a summer in China and a semester in Florence, Italy, for example.
Given her interest in dance, it is no surprise to learn that Edgar Degas is among her most important influences--though not as important as John Singer Sargent, her all time favorite. Others who touch she feels in her soul are Cezanne (a little) and de Kooning (a lot).
She is a mixed media artist, doing oils, gesso mixed with ink, acrylics and spray paint, just for starters. She is drawn to large canvases, and has to force herself to work small. Asked why she has moved here, she said, "Charleston brought me to Charleston." She loves the Lowcountry, and trusts the city as an emerging market for serious art. She is the youngest painter I kno win the area to have her own studio, her own gallery contract, and a real living as an artist. In the past year her work has been auctioned to support charities, including the Duke Cancer Center.
She is an amazing talent--confident, beautiful, and full to the brim with excitement and mirth. Asked what and where she wanted to be in five years, she said, "An artist. Right here. And I want to develop a style so original that anyone walking by one of my paintings will say, 'That's a Kate Long.'"
It won't take five years, she's already there.
