However, over the last two decades, I have explored, what I affectionately refer to as “art from the other side of my brain”, and have delved into the world of intuitive abstracts! Although my first love shall always be the exquisite torture of realism, I have enjoyed success in the “intuitive” abstract genre, in which emotion, color, shape, line, and loose form play a pivotal role. My abstract paintings are done primarily in acrylic overlaid with mixed media. I have developed a signature style that has been described by one critic as “pure, intense, and intuitive while remaining essentially modern”. I also love working with interior designers who want to give their clients the opportunity to have a unique piece of original art created specifically for their home that can be enjoyed for generations to come. In fact, I consider “customization” to be my specialty! My abstracts have been paired with centuries old antiques, as well as, clean, modern décor. Although I consider myself to be mostly self-taught, I studied for a time under Richmond artists Irene Perry and Cuney Nuffer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pantelefineart.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.pantelefineart.com\/\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards and Professional Experience\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eBest in Show, Portrait of “Sam” The Tuckahoe Woman’s Club Juried Art Show      1996\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eBest in Show, Portrait of “Richard” The Tuckahoe Woman’s Club Juried Art Show                  1998\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Foggy Bottom”                Charlottesville Designer House                                               2015\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Baby Blue” Charlottesville Designer House                                               2015\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Summer Laundry” Parade of Homes                                                                                    2016\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Sugar Cane Field’s” Commission Hampden-Sydney College                                2015\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“College Church” Commission Hampden-Sydney College                                2016\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Afternoon Bath” American Cancer Society                                                        2016\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Sweet Baby Ruth” American Cancer Society                                                        2016\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“BA’s Girls” American Cancer Society                                                        2017\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“The Field’s Shall Blossom” Meredith College Alumnae Exhibition                                  2017\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eFirst Place, “Tiger, Tiger” The Tuckahoe Woman’s Club Juried Art Show                     2019\u003c\/span\u003e                                    \u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eEducation\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBachelor of Arts in History\u003c\/strong\u003e (cum laude)          Raleigh, North Carolina\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMeredith College May 1985\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibitions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrently exhibiting at \u003cem\u003eThe Crossroads Art Center, \u003c\/em\u003eMain Gallery, Richmond, Virginia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo-Person Exhibition at \u003cem\u003eUrban Interiors\u003c\/em\u003e, with abstract artist Danny Trent, Richmond, Virginia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRichmond Symphony Orchestra League Designer House 2018\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e“Two Heads…One Heart” a dual exhibition with Julie Matre, Crossroads Art Center, Richmond, Virginia\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e “Hung Juried” Exhibition Glave-Kocen Gallery, Richmond, Virginia\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e“In the Garden” Exhibition Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden, Richmond, Virginia\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.crossroadsartcenter.com\/blogs\/artists\/artist-interview-kathy-pantele\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;
