Blue Angel - 1999

Blue Angel depicts a female figure poised beside a red Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Minimal color and flowing line emphasize the curves of the figure and the machine, creating a balanced interplay between presence and motion. The composition conveys confidence and poise, allowing the viewer to engage with form and gesture rather than narrative.

Produced in 1999 as a limited edition oil silkscreen serigraph on archival paper, this work reflects a unique milestone in the artist's career—Colleen Ross was among the first women licensed by Harley-Davidson to paint their motorcycles. This composition exemplifies her distinctive approach to combining figuration with iconic industrial imagery.
