“As an artist, I am always drawn to the gesture


in a pose, and that is why I suppose I like to
paint dancers. When painting a dancer, there is
always an elegance in their movements that
begs to be painted. In the painting ‘Adornos’
(which is a Spanish dance term meaning
embellishments), I loved the way the model
moved with her long flowing skirt. For me this
was a visual feast, and in this relatively small
painting I tried to capture the essence of the
gesture and movement without over-painting
the subject.”

“Not being Works”
a girl myself, I have never
had to spend a lot of time ‘doing my
hair’ in the morning. Being married, I
now know how important it is for a girl
to have her hair looking ‘just right’,
and the time that it takes to get it
looking that way! In the painting
‘Morning’, we don’t know exactly
what the day will hold for the girl in
the painting. Is she getting ready to
have breakfast? Is she a farm girl
running off to do her chores? Will she
be meeting that special boy in her life?
Who knows... but isn’t that really the
fun of looking at a painting- the viewer
brings his or her own interpretation

“The painting ‘Repose’ is a perfect example of the kind of technical aspects I like to try to
tackle in my paintings. Many times I am not as interested in the subject as much as I am
in creating some visual connection with the viewer that goes beyond subject matter. I am
not setting out to see how well I can ‘render’ the subject that I am seeing, but trying and
find ways through abstraction, color, and paint application to suggest things visually to
the viewer, instead of spelling everything out for them. I think this is what Quang Ho
likes to call a ‘visual Dialog’. Not being a smart as Quang- I haven’t yet thought of a term

M
for what I am trying to get across in a painting.” -KB

“I love this painting titled ‘Valencia’ simply because of the way it’s painted. I
had a wonderful model to work with and everything just seemed to come
together quickly. I love the ‘broken color’ of the brushstrokes and the chaotic

feeling they give in contrast to the serene pose offered by this beautiful model.”
