Kyria

by Kaysha Siemens

A portrait of a Lady: Kyria means ‘lady’ in Greek. Oil on board, painted especially to suit a beloved and long-hoarded hand-carved wooden frame. Saffron drapery shamelessly and lovingly inspired by The Flaming June by Frederic Leighton.

Kyria is 3.5×5 inches, framed in a hand-carved wooden frame (visible portion of artwork is about 2.75 x 4.25 inches). The frame’s outer dimensions are 5 x 6.5 inches.

Kaysha Siemens

I was born and raised in Canada, and now make my home near Asheville, NC, USA. My work is primarily figurative and narrative. I work mainly in oil and graphite. My current primary focus is Mnemosyne, an ongoing project inspired by Greek myth.

My goal is the object of beauty, but that goal is achieved through engagement in process, and neither aim is worthwhile without meaning and intention. I seek to talk about the ordinary with the language of story, to arrest with exquisite imagery, and ultimately to leave viewers with a feeling, a lingering sense, that they have had a brush with the sublime.
