KC Moore works primarily in acrylics and oils but has produced work in multi-media, collage, digitally altered photography and assemblage.
She is an award winning California artist who enjoys the focus of emotion in her artwork: vibrant color, the movement of a line, the layering of contrasting or supporting hues and textures...virtually anything that formulates the excitement of life.
She admits that the color and movement in her work is more vibrant and electric than found in the real world. Most of her compositions are born out of a memory, experience or emotion and it reflects more what could be rather than what is.
She states that an artist cannot help but bring to the world emotions encountered in life.
Native, has become her logo and was a life changing experience. It occurred after 9-11 and several close personal losses that she found herself producing work exploding with anger and eventually stopped painting altogether.
She encountered a photograph of a native man dancing - caught in a moment of joy. He had nothing by our standards and yet was happy.
It was a moment where she resolved to continue painting but only subjects that reflect the joy and wonder of life.

Dancing Oak is 16" x 20" framed in a solid wood frame. $750 at The Kennedy Gallery 916.716.7050
Three local galleries have closed their doors: Doiron Gallery, The 404 Gallery and Midtown Gallery. These venues will be sorely missed and it has left a void in the local art scene.
Have you ever clicked on an Internet link only to get a '404 Error'? That indicates that the connection is no longer valid. Many artists have been 404'd by these gallery closings!
I am inviting artists that no longer have a location to show their artwork to join the 404 Virtual Gallery. This will be a venue that will continue long after me. No one should ever be 404'd again.

Have you ever had your artwork rejected?
Well so did Yoko, Andy and Leonardo. I have a copy of the rejection letter Andy Warhol got from MoMA when they said 'no thanks'. Read about it on my blog at: http://www.kcmgroup.wordpress.com/
