{"product_id":"kate-owen-presto-in-crimson","title":"Kate Owen - Presto In Crimson","description":"\u003cp\u003eI was inspired to start listening to classical music after reading The Instrumentalist about a young girl learning to play violin from maestros such as Vivaldi in an orphanage in Venice. She had the extraordinary ability to see notes in colour. Presto in music is a tempo marking that means the piece should be played very fast. In this work I am responding intuitively to the pitch and tempo in the music which informs the marks I make and the colours I choose. Alternating between sweeping colour wash on with a rag to drawing with paint using a long brush much like conducting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKate Owen\u003c\/strong\u003e, Presto In Crimson\u003cbr\u003eAcrylic and oil stick on birch panel\u003cbr\u003e100 × 100 cm\u003cbr\u003eArtist location: \u003cspan\u003eNorth Star, NSW\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNoosa Art Prize 2026 Finalist, catalogue no. 41\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Non Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Original","offer_id":48491514888418,"sku":null,"price":3350.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/6246\/7298\/files\/Bh477h3RrCgw3xV70dOLRuGAv7FSGo9lZ2CGEnZn.jpg?v=1790147106","url":"https:\/\/thenongallery.com.au\/products\/kate-owen-presto-in-crimson","provider":"The Non Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
