The Vintage Painter: Christine Mount Kapp
 |
| The Vintage Painter - Award-winning artist, Chrissy Mount Kapp |
Much of her portraiture is based on an appreciation of geneaology and history. These interests combined to fuel her vision of painting vintage and Americana themes.
Chrissy's painting, Beer Can Collection is a still life with a pop-art background. This iconic painting is based on the artist's brother's 1960/70s beer can collection of 500 cans. Chrissy picked eleven beer cans from his collection that she remembers the adults, from her childhood, drinking.
Christine's nostalgic Farm Boys painting features two brothers playing with a stick while a typical red dairy barn sits in the background.
Working The Fields is another one of Chrissy's paintings and shows farmers working the fields while a windmill stands as a silent sentry in the background. This is a framed sepia painting in a custom handcrafted barnwood frame.
