Kristye-Dudley-Contemporary-Artist-Headshot

Welcome to my studio.

I am Kristye, a contemporary abstract painter, designer, writer, illustrator, and teacher living in Northern Virginia.

I see the figure as a shell for the spirit. I enjoy using impressionistic strokes, featureless faces, and expressive forms to exhibit the universal emotions we all share. I explore nature, life, and the beauty of emotional self-reflection in the world around us. I hope that my work will touch and inspire you.

What My Collectors Say

  • "I worked with Kristye on a surprise commission piece for my husband on Father's Day. I wish I had videotaped his reaction, because it spoke volume of her talent. It now hangs proudly in our home. Thank you Kristye!!!"

  • “Kristye created a painting that is a treasured moment caught in time. We could not be happier with the result. Thank you Kristye!”

    Andy McNeill

Hello Gorgeous! That’s what one of my favorite mugs says (faintly). I’m sipping on Chai Tea while editing art. 🎁 . But work today was slow, my sweet little dude was at home today recovering from a slight concussion. He’s fine, but yesterday the race car party turned into bumper cars and he got BUMPED! 💥 🤕 . But he’s already trying to negotiate how to go outside and play. I’m so grateful that he’s alright. . So for now, I’ll reheat my tea and squeeze in a little more work before I spend the afternoon with my “sonshine”. . #boymom #workingmom #artistlife #workfromhomemom
🎨 Just like that, another tiger art print found a home. 🐯 . No surprise—this piece went to a fellow Clemson Tiger Alum. Fun Fact: Did you know I was a Clemson Cheerleader and Homecoming Queen? 🐅 It’s true! . But here’s the good news: you can have a print too. Don’t keep this to yourself. Share it with other Clemson fans too. Go Tigers! 📩 Need more details? DM me or visit the links in my bio. — #TigerArtPrint #ExclusiveArtPrints #BoldArtForSale #CollectorArt #TigerPrints #EyeOfTheTiger #ClemsonUniversity #clemsonfb #IPTAY #ClemsonAlumni #clemsoncbac
As I sit and hand paint porcelain Christmas ornaments, I am still trying to stay connected to Fall!😂 . When the kids were younger, I planned the most fun fall adventures. Petting zoos, hayrides, corn mazes, and ordering costumes in early September! Now, I am thinking ahead to holiday sales, and the kids don’t want carve pumpkins anymore. 🎃 . I’m so glad we did those things when they were tiny and that sometimes, they are still up for some fall fun! These are pictures from a fall party we went to a couple of weeks ago. It was like stepping into a secret forest. . #fallfun🍁 #holidayrush #familyfun
Work in progress. Hand painting porcelain ornaments in gouache. . #tistheseason #holidaydecor #giftgiving #gouachepainting
This weekend, I had the most beautiful Sunday! ☀️ I dusted off my rollerblades and hit the pavement… for a solid 20 minutes. 😂 Only one fall (safety gear to the rescue!), but it was all worth it! 🛼👷🏾‍♀️ Stepping out of my comfort zone reminds me that progress, no matter how wobbly, is still progress. I’m committed to pushing myself to see what’s waiting for me beyond those boundaries. Keep moving forward, even if it means a few falls along the way. 💪🏾 What challenge are you taking on next? #KeepMoving #Rollerblades #OutOfYourComfortZone
How can there be 9 weeks and 3 days until Christmas?!?! . This Holiday Season I am sharing one of my favorite things. I collect ornaments from our travels, and most of them are hand painted. I wanted to share this tradition with you, by creating my own. . I will have honest themes, and include a few surprises too for my Clemson family. . Look out for more previews, and let me know if there is something that you would want on an ornament! 🎄 . #tistheseason #handmadeornaments #christmasornaments #holidaygifts #keepsakesbykristyedudley
