Trillium

 

18”x24”, acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas (with image painted around the 1” profile so no pressing need to frame), $1400 plus s&h to the first asking nicely. View her in a room setting, get your nose right up into her business, or make her your own right here. Trillium is available to ship late December. Payment plans available on request - 30% non refundable deposit reserves the painting, with 6 months to pay off the balance plus s&h. Questions can always come my way.

make her yours

I thought she was done the week before Christmas, when our heavy blanket of snow from the prior two weeks was melting. Temperatures shifted to the 40s, with rain predicted. While I knew it wasn’t a true end-of-winter melt, spring couldn’t help but creep her way to the easel. I am a rabid optimist after all.

However, I got my due. Today I added a bit more magic to her along with my signature, all while blizzard conditions raged outside. Which makes her all the more glorious - soft, summer night skies sprinkled with dancing pansies and trillium. A stark contrast to the drifting snow and wind battered bare trees.

What will show up on the easel tomorrow? will it be more spring, or something a bit more seasonal? I guess we shall have to wait and see.

Meanwhile, thank you so much for your interest in and support of 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...
