A review in the Santa Barbara News Press about “Figuratively Speaking,” a group exhibition in the Meisel Gallery: “Kathleen Elsey paints with a looser hand than the other artists, building compositions with dabs of paint and structures built from modules. Fauvist echoes sneak into her scene paintings, brightly hued but slightly tilted views, as in “Beach Days, Misty” and “Mission Morning Mass,” a strange but interesting take on the oft-depicted Santa Barbara Mission.” Josef Woodard Santa Barbara News Press
