Live figurative painting

KBarnsley brings the experience of sport to the canvas live at your venue, creating original oil paintings at sporting events as the action unfolds. Her expressive palette knife paintings capture the movement, atmosphere, and character of athletes in bold colour and energetic mark-making.

Working courtside, pitchside, or trackside, she observes the action while taking reference photographs and videos to capture key moments, expressions, and athletic form. These references allow each painting to reflect both the excitement of the event and the individuality of the competitors.

Each artwork is completed live before being taken to the studio to dry and finish curing. The original oil paintings are then made available for purchase, offering athletes, clubs, and spectators a unique and lasting record of the occasion.
