NEW CURATED COLLECTION


 

Three new pieces, acrylic on flat panel, a curated collection of original art available with special group pricing of $700 plus s&h. At left, Second Bloom, 9x12 ($500), on the right at top is Cotton Candy, 6x6 ($275), and below her, Cabernet, also 6x6 ($275). Collectively this arrangement measures 15x12. These will be offered as a group until September 9th after which I will parcel them out at the individually marked prices above. Inquiries may come to me or you can use this link.

Direct from my garden to your walls


If you follow me on socials (FB and Insta), you may have seen the various groupings I've been doing with the abstract paintings this summer. I collect a handful of them and then play with various arrangements and overlaps on the studio floor. It's a fantastic way to reframe the designs and allow the paintings to have conversations with each other.

I've also discovered that some of the paintings feel stronger when they are together. Not that the individual paintings are not little delights on their own, but when put in the company of others their sum is much greater.

Such is the case with this grouping, a collection of panels started plein air (outside in my garden) and finished in the studio. All three are thick with luscious paint and richly colored individual "portraits" of my favorite dahlias in bloom and the garden bed they call home. You get an overview painting along with two closeups. You can keep all three for yourself or keep your favorite and gift the other two.

You can see the piece in greater detail here, view up close (I'm telling you that paint is THICK!) and in a room setting, and find a link to purchase.

Let me know if you would like a payment plan (30% non refundable deposit with the balance plus s&h paid off within a year) - those are set up on an individual basis and not processed through my website.

This curated collection will be available until September 9th after which I will allow the individual pieces to go out. Let me know if you want just one or two of them, and I'll keep you in the loop, k?

Thanks so much for your interest in my artwork,
All my best, warmly, Kim

Dear Copyright Thieves

Dear Copyright Thieves,   Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's free for the taking. So let's just stop pretending the internet is a free-for-all.   Don't play the card that you didn't know - that's insulting. And don't also tell me that you meant to follow up and get permission but never got a chance to. That's insulting too. And by the way, don't you have a copyright protection notice on your own site?   And don't even try and point the finger at a third party who commissioned you to make a copy of my painting - again, an insult - you and I both know the difference between a reference photo and a painting.   And don't tell me that I asked for it because I share my artwork on the internet. I share my paintings and ideas and the stories behind them so as to encourage others to pursue  their own passions . I do not share so that those lacking integrity and morals can copy and market the images as their own...

Grindstone

"Grindstone", 16" x 20" acrylics on museum quality panel, depicting Grindstone, just a few strides away from winning The Kentucky Derby in 1996. Read more about this painting's story below - it's a good one! And inquiries may come directly  to me .  Paying it Forward Shortly after getting The Derby Gig, which neatly dovetailed my childhood passion for horse racing with my grown up obsession with painting, I started formulating a plan to give back to the universe. As it played out, The Kentucky Derby Museum got involved, and it was decided I would donate a piece to them, something they could use as a fundraising tool to further their education efforts.  "Would I be interested in painting Grindstone, the winner of the 1996 Derby?" they asked. But of course! Little did I know the background story, though. Every year the Museum asks the owners of the Kentucky Derby winner to donate one breeding to the Museum when th...

Golden Open Acrylics

I get all sorts of process oriented questions. Most recently I've been getting asked a lot about my paints and palette, which made me realize what a nice blog topic this would make! I use a Masterson Sta-Wet Premier palette box . This is comprised of a box (think Tupperware) with a sponge liner and a slice of palette paper that work together to keep my paints wet. This setup allows me to work with the same palette for about a full week, having the box open for multiple hours every day. You can see what the palette looks like at the beginning of a new session above - below the exact same palette after this week's work. For the last 25 years I have used Golden brand acrylics, mediums, and varnish. I love the overall quality of these paints and the fact that, when I have a question, their customer service department is made up of artists who actually use the products. Until last year, I used their Heavy Body paints exclusively. They have a buttery consistency, a little loose...
