Katie Meuser

Biographical Info A native of Nebraska, Katie Meuser has experienced openness, breadth, and a variety of landscapes that have shaped her pieces through her artistic journey into the modern spaces of her Chicago home. In the open country Katie has seen splendor in chaos and control living in harmony and has been able to focus these ideas into a contemporary style of non-objective and expressionist abstract art with an emphasis on figures, color fields, and moving hues in her pieces. Her work has been seen in modern and contemporary galleries along with interior and exterior murals throughout the Chicagoland area as well as being a part of Activate Chicago, Chicago Ideas Week, and Raw Chicago. Through her evolving process of color ratios and meticulously expanding, water-like designs Katie has found inspiration in the change and movement of the tones across large canvases and the opportunities her large-scale formats have to offer.

Short Description I specialize in Large-scale abstract art. I am known for my style which is very fluid and organic with vibrant colors. I paint predominantly with water and acrylic and experiment with different ratios of the two mediums. I love playing with color and am always striving to come up with new and exciting color themes. Color is so important, it can provoke an emotional response to the viewer forming a strong connection to a piece without having a recognizable image. Lately, I have been including charcoal and geometric lines and shapes in my work. I think it is important to try new things and just keep the ideas flowing!
