XAN KOONCE
)
Xan Sinclair Koonce was born and raised in West Texas where the only vivid color that permeated the bleak landscape was the endless blue sky. Today, she resides in Georgetown, Texas, where she has grown to appreciate the color and beauty that Central Texas reveals. While caring for her family and working as a professional event planner at Southwestern University, she earned her Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art from Southwestern University, the oldest institution of higher education in Texas.
Xan’s interest is taking the beauty she sees and abstracting it to gain greater insight. Once inspired, she unapologetically applies seductive and radiant colors to her paintings as an expression of her growth, strength, control and endurance. As she paints, her primary concern is conveying an aesthetic experience through color, line and composition.
She is an artist who embodies the synthesis of abstract expressionism with the palette of Matisse. It is precisely this fusion of spontaneity and color that has produced a rich and expressive body of work.
All of her artistic pursuits stem from a passion for beauty and a reverence for the power that beauty has to transform life.
