Artist Statement: Kreta Dawn Art
My work explores the transformative power of color through abstract, fluid-driven painting. Using acrylic paint made fluid through water-based mediums, I manipulate color as both material and movement, allowing it to flow, interact, and settle into compositions that feel energetic, vibrant, and alive. This process—what I refer to as color fluidics—creates a sense of rhythm and visual momentum that invites the viewer into the work.
I am inspired by the emotional impact of color and its ability to shape our experience of a space. Influences range from modern and contemporary interior design to nature and music, each informing the way color, flow, and form interact on the canvas. Whether referencing organic botanical elements, musical vibration, or pure color movement, my work seeks to evoke feelings of joy, excitement, and visual curiosity.
Scale plays an important role in my practice, with a particular focus on larger works that engage the viewer physically as well as emotionally. Due to the time-sensitive nature of fluid paint, each piece requires careful planning, experimentation, and intentional execution. Smaller studies allow me to refine techniques and compositions before translating them to larger canvases.
Ultimately, my work is created to live within thoughtfully designed environments. I aim for each piece to enhance its surroundings, energize a room, and create an atmosphere that feels uplifting, dynamic, and visually compelling—inviting viewers to carry that sense of color and movement into their own spaces.
Artist Bio: Kreta Dawn Art
Kreta is an emerging abstract artist based in Norman, Oklahoma, a city known for its vibrant and supportive arts community. Working primarily with acrylic paint on canvas, Kreta employs water-based mediums to increase fluidity, allowing color to move freely across the surface. She describes her approach as color fluidics—a process-driven practice that transforms paint into flowing forms to create energetic movement, layered compositions, and contemporary visual impact.
Kreta's work is inspired by the transformative power of color and its ability to influence mood, evoke joy, and enhance interior spaces. Drawing influence from modern and contemporary interior design, as well as organic forms found in nature and the rhythms of music, her paintings are designed to complement architectural environments while offering a sense of motion and vibrancy. Series such as her botanical and vibration works reflect these varied sources of inspiration through color, flow, and visual rhythm.
Her process emphasizes intentional planning and experimentation. Kreta frequently develops techniques and compositions on smaller canvases before executing large-scale works, allowing for precision within the limited working time of fluid paint. In addition to her studio practice, she is known for sharing process and creation videos on social media, offering viewers insight into the dynamic nature of her work.
Kreta officially launched her art business in 2023 and has since participated in regional art markets, the Oklahoma City Festival of the Arts, a group exhibition at Uncanny Art House in Norman, and a guest artist exhibition at Art on Paseo in Oklahoma City’s Paseo Arts District.
