THE WORLDLY FEATURED ARTIST

KRISTEN HASKELL

ABOUT
Kristen Haskell, born in Massachusetts in 1983, studied graphic design and studio art at Marymount Manhattan College. Although she moves within many artistic fields, she mainly focuses on painting. Her preferred medium is oil on canvas, but has most recently been experimenting with acrylic.

The work of Kristen Haskell can either be figurative or abstract. She paints with a figure in mind, most often an animal, and creates an abstract image with the figure embedded within it. Haskell encourages her viewers to find the figure within her pieces but to also use their own interpretation of what the figure could be.

Kristen Haskell graduated from Marymount Manhattan College in 2005, shortly after she had her first solo show at Marymount’s Hewitt Gallery of Art. The show was up for three months. She currently lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
