Crushing big time over the work of Toronto artist Kathryn Macnaughton. Spotted via Instagram a while back, Kathryn had her first solo show with Bau-xi Gallery this spring whiche featured some of her beautiful abstract paintings.

A graduate of OCAD, Macnaughton has exhibited in both Canada and abroad since 2010. Recent collaborations include Kit and Ace, Collective Arts Brewery, and The Gardiner Museum. Let's take a look!

HARDCORE #Repost @cbcarts ・・・ 🎨@cbcq asked Toronto artist @kathrynmac what it's like to be a full-time painter. Her answer might inspire you: "There's a lot of failing. Days of just failing constantly. It's devastating. the majority of the time I'm devastated when I come home from work, but you end up discovering new things and creating new bodies of work that you're just so happy with through the discovery of failing so much." #cbcarts . . Kathryn Macnaughton "Hardcore" 2017 . . Dualities: A Bridge Between Two Worlds is at @bauxigallery in Vancouver July 8 to 22
