Shadow of Change I & II
Shadow of Change I & II
Yolanda Kennison
60 x 40 inches
Acrylic on Stretched Canvas
In the wake of the Covid-19 lockdown, Kennison’s perspective on life underwent a profound transformation. Amidst the turmoil, she found solace in nature. As she wandered through the neighborhood during her daily walks, she was struck by the resilience of the trees; their shadows, etched upon the sidewalks, remained as impressive as ever.
In the delicate dance of light and shade, she observed the slender tree branches casting shadows as robust as the trunks themselves, while leaves danced carelessly in the wind. Nature, unyielding in its beauty, seemed untouched by the chaos engulfing our daily life. These observations, infused with vibrant color, expressive brushwork, and thoughtful composition, inspired the artistic celebration of resilience and this painting entitled Shadow of Change I & II. In Kennison’s world, shadows burst forth with life, color, and energy, serving as a testament to the determined force of nature and humanity.

Meet the Artist:
Yolanda Kennison is a central Kentucky artist whose paintings are inspired by nature, music and her imagination. Due to the Covid19 pandemic, she was laid off and pivoted her career from the hospitality world to becoming a full-time artist. Her lifelong dream of painting everyday had come true in 2020! Yolanda’s abstract, floral and landscape paintings are created in an expressive style that dare the viewer to think differently for a moment, embrace the imperfect and be surprised for a journey that takes an intimate look at our colorful surroundings. Using acrylic paint, the surface receives texture, dimension and color in multiple layers. A combination of brushes, palette knives and mark making tools are used to blend colors and create an energetic moment on the canvas. Kennison’s paintings are in private collections throughout the United States and in numerous healthcare facilities in central Kentucky. Yolanda’s paintings can also be found at regional art fairs and gallery exhibitions.
