Carolyn Mary Kleefeld

Art Brokerage: Carolyn Mary Kleefeld American Artist: B. 1945 - American Big Sur artist Carolyn Mary Kleefeld is a philosopher and evolutionary thinker whose innovative visual art and writing have been used for over twenty years in the fields of human consciousness and creativity. Born in England , Ms. Kleefeld grew up in Southern California and studied art and psychology at UCLA. In her art, Ms.Kleefeld expresses both the vibrancy of the external world and the inner dimensions and emotional tones of the poet. Her art is in the collections of Ted Turner, Laura Huxley and the Downey Museum of Art, among others. Over the past two decades, Ms. Kleefeld has crated an extensive and diverse body of visual art, ranging from her earlier large abstract expressionist works to her multidimensional drawings and current figural oil paintings, which evoke the spirit of Romanticism. She translates archetypal worlds into bold explosions of color, sensuality, and spiritual attunement, expressing in symbolic imagery the passions of the human heart and a pantheistic affinity with nature. Ms. Kleefeld paints in a manner that began with the Surrealist, suspending, conscious, pre-conceptions, allowing the intuitive, subconscious realities to manifest. Her art has been featured in galleries, museums, art magazines, and textbooks on art and has been selected for juried exhibitions and awards nationwide. Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.
