Available to ship mid to late November 2025. Questions? just  reach out . Ever since seeing the oodles of  iconography on our trip to Italy I have been thinking about my own use of symbols. I have a bunch of go-tos - blue eyes (like  Bioluminescence's ) are my grandmother, and pink is always hope, just to name a few. Post vacation, I became enamored with the idea of adding halos on my animals, but that felt a bit too literal - nevertheless, I started thinking about how I might crown things in other ways.  Rabbit is the first. Do you see her, cloaked in ultramarine, holding a sunrise while harboring vulnerable lit...

Bioluminescence

  Bioluminescence     18"x24", acrylic on flat panel, $1000 plus s&h to the first asking nicely. Click on the image  or here  to be transported to my website where you can view the painting in a room setting, zoom in up close to the image, and perhaps even make her all yours. Available to ship mid to late November 2025. Questions? just  reach out . Dreams can be such interesting things.  A couple nights ago I dreamed of a silver wolf, floating underneath the undisturbed surface of a vertical pond. I never saw her clearly - just sensed her presence. She moved with gentle intention and a clear purpose. Things were thrashing about and drowning deep in this strange water, but she was nudging them through the surface where they would gasp for air and wrest themselves out. She showed me how to hold the heads up of those who were too weary, and we worked together on extricating as many as po...

Isis

  Isis   24"x36", acrylic on cradled panel (no pressing need to frame), private collection (thank you so much to my returning collector!). Click on the image  or here  to be transported to my website where you can view the painting in a room setting and zoom in up close to the image. Questions? just  reach out . Domestic cats have been showing up  everywhere for me lately, and while I don't often paint their larger cousins, I was pulled to do so this week, so that's what I've been doing -  Plenty  from a few days back, now  Isis , and I have a couple other ideas but am not quite sure how to even start them yet, so they are going to simmer for a bit. That's one of the most challenging parts of my job, harboring patience while an idea solidifies. I tend to want to jump in and chase the adrenaline rush of the unknown. But I've learned to temper it just a bit - enough so that I'm not entirely blind to what I'm signin...

Orbiting (Wolf)

Click on the image  or here  to be transported to my website where you can view the painting in a room setting or zoom in up close to the image to examine her surface. Questions? just  reach out . This one started out fierce, then got puppy dog softer, then became staunch and wise. Which actully mirrored a situation in my personal life. Coincidence? I think not - Wolf showed me how to compassionately move through life's twists and turns. And ultimately ask about my path, whether it be direct (like old growth trunks), wandering (like the edge of sky) or orbiting (like many moons). which best suits where I want to go and how I wish to get there? Thanks so much for your interest in my artwork, Love you, Kim. PS  Returning collectors please use "COLLECTOR10" at checkout for your repeat offender discount. If ...

November Online Classroom Calendar

  Let's Paint Together Online Did you know that I have an online classroom called The Magic Space? It's an open studio setup where I drop exclusive content focused on sharing inspiration, approach to intuitive work, the processes I use in my paintings, and all sorts of other good stuff. The basic premise is that we all want to discover what makes our work stand out, right? like essentially how to build a unique style. And that's what I show, by example, with content created in real time focused exactly on what I am doing in my paintings. If you already follow me on my socials you are seeing  in process images and the finished work, algorythm permitting, which is great eye candy. In The Magic Space you get so much more than that - you learn where the ideas originate, see preparatory works, deep discourse on the evolution and journey a painting carries me on, hear me frame takeaways and new challenges, with opportunity to ask questions and hands on guidance as you...

Loves Me, Loves Me Not

  Loves Me, Loves Me Not     24"x30", acrylic on aluminum panel (will require framing), $1800 plus s&h to the first asking nicely. Click on the image  or here  to be transported to my website where you can view the painting in a room setting, zoom in up close to the image, and perhaps even make her all yours. Available to ship mid November 2025. Questions? just  reach out . A small herd of deer bed down regularly in our yard and I was in love with the visual that came to me of layering a transparent spotted fawn with star studded skies, along with a number of other concepts ( Dawn and Dusk ,  A Thousand Pieces ,  Hollyhock ,  Presence ). This one languished alongside some other starts. They were born with great energy and the best intentions, but at some point began to feel derivative. Formulaic work does not excite me, so the work got set aside until I had the breadth to see them wit...

Available to ship end of October 2025. Questions? just  reach out . A trip to the vet with our senior kitty Mona (she's been plagued with ear infections since January, but is coming around, something that's lifted our spirits quite a bit) kicked off a continuation of wolf winks (a wink is when something shows up repeatedly and unexpectedly in my life, sort of like living that social media algorythm, lol). We got situated in "the big dog" room which included a large wolf print silhouetted against a sunset. Mo was not impressed, but I took note and b...
