NEW PAINTINGS Canary and Tiger Lily

 

At left, Canary, on right, Tiger Lily. Both are original acrylic paintings on gallery wrapped circular canvases with painted sides for a clean, contemporary look. Both at 12" in diameter, signed on the side and back (so you can hang in any orientation, but I rather like them this way). Each $800 plus s&h to the first asking nicely. Why not go a little crazy and buy both for $1300 ($300 plus shipping overage (my website doesn't consolidate ship costs) will be refunded to the purchasing paypal account). Link to purchase is below.
 
This has been the Summer of Abstraction. I am learning so much - and falling in love all over again with my materials.

One, paint is so versatile. I can thin it down and make it all drippy, I can break apart the binder and get a fantastic mottled effect, I can build it up for impasto and tactile brushwork. I can brush it on, paint with my fingers, roll, scrape or use any one of other random tools on hand. It can be opaque marks that swallow up the surface or translucent passages that reveal or hint at the history underneath.

And shapes, oh the shapes! I'm working on paper cut into various shapes, using circular motifs, squares, rectangles. Rearranging numerous works of varying shape and size and building larger, irregularly shaped assemblages. Adding bits to the edges, layering paintings overtop each other, painting dimensionally on sculpted form.

In the process I'm also discovering new ways to approach design, how to filter and distill inspiration, and how to speak more coherently about my art.

Meanwhile, these two are now ready to head out into the world. Will they be coming to your home?
Canary can be viewed here.
Tiger Lily here.
In both instances there is the opportunity to dive nose first in to greater detail, view them in a room setting, along with 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.

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

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...

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...
