Hi, I’m Kim, lover of art, design, nature, laughing, and coffee. 

My artistic intention is that through a more impressionistic or abstract style, space is created for you to evoke your own imagination and experience the emotions you need most.

Being primarily self taught has given me the ability to take my strong intuitive vision  and  use it to my advantage.  This enables me to dissect a subject  into shapes and then create a painting from this unique and creative perspective.  After starting with watercolor and then gouache, I was drawn to work on  larger canvases and now primarily works in oils or acrylics. According to my mentors, I take on subjects that would drive others crazy. My composition and use of color and value are my strengths.

My work is primarily inspired by nature, my family, geometric and minimalistic design and my many travels. I’ve learned to listen to my intuition and if I’m not inspired to paint, I sew! I’m also expanding my artwork onto fabric and exploring the world of textiles to combine my two loves.

I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and have two grown children and three beautiful granddaughters, whom I love to spoil and are my newly appointed gurus.

When I'm not painting, I'm usually hiking, biking or sewing.

I look forward to connecting with you!

Love, Kim
