Kym Balthazar is an abstract artist and educator based in Northeastern Pennsylvania, known for expressive oil and cold wax paintings that build texture, movement, and story through layered surfaces. Her work often incorporates collage, sharp linear marks, and evidence of process, allowing each composition to feel discovered rather than predetermined. The result is atmospheric, tactile, and emotionally charged.
Balthazar’s background in illustration remains visible in the structure and rhythm of her paintings, but her current practice is rooted in experimentation—scraping, building, editing, and revealing forms through the push and pull of oil and wax. In 1776: Remixed, her abstract works invite viewers to consider freedom, history, and national identity not as fixed ideas, but as layered, evolving experiences.
