"Ascending": Art That Gives A Fresh Take On Realism.

Ascending C #23 SOLD

Welcome to Kallstrom Studio.

I'm Marlene, a mixed media artist from Red Deer, Alberta, Canada.

Are you looking for contemporary and unique art?
​
​I can help to reduce the confusion over what art to choose and help you find a painting that is perfect for you whether its already in the Gallery or a Commission.

Perhaps you'd like a painting that gives you an internal "lift" of excitement, one that triggers an important memory, or draws you into its world?

My paintings, which lean towards Realism but are Abstract enough to keep them interesting, are called "Abstract-Realism". 
What also adds to their uniqueness are the  "bubbles of gratitude" that rise up in each painting.
​

Ascending CX #2 ( 9" x 12")

Are you sentimental and get drawn to scenes of times past?
​​
Do you like interesting or old buildings and cheerful flowers?

Do you love the Great Outdoors? Or your pets?

Are you a fan of Realism but would like a new and fresh take on it?
​
​If you answered "yes" to any of the above, you're in the right place as I love them too!

Would you like something different than traditional framing and prefer not to have the glare of the glass affect the enjoyment of your art?

I'm excited to offer watercolour & ink paintings on cotton paper that are preserved with UV protection & cold wax, and then archivally affixed to a wood form which gives a modern, contemporary presentation. No glass. No frame - although a floating frame could be added.

Clicking on the pictures in the gallery will indicate if a painting is traditionally framed (limited supply available) or on wood.

​Here's a link to the Gallery.
