Danielle Mckinney, Prophetic, 2020

A mesmerising painting by ascendent artist Danielle Mckinney. The New York-based painter’s sumptuously coloured works most often depict isolated female figures, lost in their own pursuits—from reading and smoking to engaging with nature, as per this peeping protagonist. Enigmatic and engaging in equal measure, there’s a Hopper-esque quality to Mckinney’s exquisitely executed pieces and the hidden narratives they invite us to ponder.
