Winter Wonderland Progression

This was a fun commission!

When I moved to Colorado 2 years ago I did a winter scene series focusing on snowflakes, orbs, mountains and trees. I recently finished this commission revisiting that genre. Keep scrolling to see the progression.

"Moon Dance" is an iconic original oil painting I created early in my career on Maui and it's now available for you to own.
A private collection inspired by Henri Matisse's, "The Dance."
My influence and focus was on the femininity of Polynesian women and their culture. Dancing on a beach, under the moonlight, enjoying a cool summer's eve. 
This is a rare opportunity to own one of my most sought after paintings.

Please contact me to talk more, I would love to hear from you.

Art in the time of Covid...

Aloha everyone...

Here is a photo of my five year old self in Kindergarten. I painted a mural of my dad skiing Heavenly Valley in Tahoe. 
I have always loved painting, ever since I can remember. 
During these uneasy times, I want to thank my collectors and supporters.

Sending best wishes to all.
Please stay safe and think about all of the little things that add joy to your life. -Kim

I had the most wonderful teacher from Bijou Elementary School named Mrs.Young. She would allow me to spend hours a day painting, and encouraged me to be an artist. She gave me extra time in class to make clay sculptures and murals while other kids studied different subjects. She changed my life and I am forever grateful!
