The landscape breathes between specificity a\u0026amp; abstraction, the trees are rendered with delicate precision, their forms both botanical and gestural, while the mountain and sky dissolve into soft, atmospheric veils. It’s a painting of place and memory held together, Kenya’s dry season captured in colour that feels both intimate and vast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKatie Simpson is a Kenyan painter whose work is an act of witness to the animals, landscapes, and fragile ecologies that shaped her from childhood. Combining ancient techniques with contemporary paint effects, she gives pigments freedom to roam the canvas,  capturing wildlife in fleeting, abstracted moments that feel both luminous and urgent. Trained at Charles H. Cecil Studios in Florence and created in her Nanyuki studio, her work is driven by a deep belief in the fragility of the natural world  and the power of colour to bear witness to it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kitengela Hot Glass","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48673188708608,"sku":null,"price":180000.0,"currency_code":"KES","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2279\/9925\/files\/IMG-3304.jpg?v=1777798517","url":"https:\/\/www.kitengela.glass\/products\/painting-katie-simpson-blue-mountain-morning-oil-on-canvas-70cm-x-90cm-2025-copy","provider":"Kitengela Glass","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
