Starry Night

 

Starry Night

 


Pictured above, Starry Night, acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, image painted around the sides so no pressing need to frame, $5000 plus s&h ($600 inside the contiguous US) to the first asking nicely. The link above will take you directly to my website where you can make her yours. Questions? Just reach out.


This one began last August. Yes, you read that right. Nearly a year ago.


Some paintings show up and are completed inside the blink of an eye. Others take a bit longer. I try not to stress about it - various things happen that can impact a pieces’ momentum. As long as I am continually showing up in the studio and doing my part to be receptive to my muse and artistic growth, it is what it is.


And yup, the title is inspired by van Gogh. His struggle to create is no secret, and I thought a little nod to this lady’s journey was appropriate. I think she was worth the wait, though, don’t you?


Get a close up look at Starry Night on my website where you can see her installed to scale in a room setting and perhaps even make her yours. Returning collectors please use “COLLECTOR10” at checkout for your repeat offender discount. 


If you would like a payment plan, reach out directly, as these are handled individually. A 30% non refundable deposit reserves the painting with balance due inside 12 months. The painting ships home once all payments are complete.


Thanks so much for your interest in my artwork. 

Love you, 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...

Picture Book "A Dog Named Blue" - now available!!

The cover of "A Dog Named Blue," now available from Blurb publishers. When I first painted Amelia I never imagined that she would be re-christened "Blue" and inspire a book. In her defense, Amelia had a number of other partners in crime - animals who's portraits seemed to fall into a specific color category and prompt color-centric names. In typical ADD fashion, my brain started spinning 100mph. What if I turned those muses' paintings into a picture book for animal loving kids? I shared my idea with three friends in the industry, and they eagerly offered their expertise. I am truly indebted to them. Illustrator and author Matt Faulkner and children's book author and literacy expert Kristen Remenar edited an early version of the draft. They suggested key plot/conceptual changes that made it oodles better. Designer Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson worked her magic, pairing the images with perfectly color...

Tabby Kit

"Tabby Kit," 5" x 7", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting a tiny little orange striped guy from Morgue File . This painting can be yours for $289, which includes s&h inside the US. And in case you didn't see it, a little doodle of him is also available for sale here . Inquires may come directly to me .  Although it certainly doesn't FEEL like spring here (snow and ice and wind chills, brr!), I can tell that spring is coming. The mercury is rising a wee bit each day and the days are getting longer and brighter. Over the weekend we drove with the moonroof open just to feel the sun's meager and oh-so-very-welcome warmth (although the heat in the car was cranked, too, in the interest of full disclosure!). I wanted to work with spring-like colors today, and this little guy was still on my mind , so I grabbed a small panel and got to work. Of course, I also have Poppy to finish and some changes to make to another po...
