“Art and music are to my soul, as food and water are to my body. I believe that art and music are two of God's most precious gifts to His children. As the author, and giver of creativity, through these gifts He has given us a portion of Himself. He created the very first canvas, magnificently painted it, and brought it to life.”


About Kimberly
Kimberly has been creating art in one form or another since she was a small child. Her career began in 1988 as a fiber/textile artist, and has continued to evolve in a variety of mediums through the years. She had the luxury of world travel, primarily Asia, in the late 80's and early 90's which greatly influenced her evolution as an artist.
The artist has painted on most every surface imaginable, but at this time works primarily on canvas and board. Her style however, remains very diverse, therefore she is hesitant to attach her name to a particular category of art. Currently, she favors two specific, yet very different techniques. The "pouring" of acrylic and oil paint, allowing the paint to move freely, telling it's own story has become a great passion.
She is also known for her knife painted oils, more traditional pieces, bearing thick paint, and heavy texture. Regarding "Artists", the variety of influences has been just as diverse. She adores the works of Jackson Pollock, the energy and frenzy involved, as well the soothing, impressionistic strokes of those such as Cezanne, Van Gogh and Monet.
Kimberly's work has been exhibited and sold in a variety of venues, is collected worldwide, and has been donated to various charities. She is a full time artist, dividing her time between painting and teaching in her Colorado studio. Original paintings are available at Kimberly Conrad Studio And Gallery in Centennial, Colorado as well as Artful Sol Gallery, Vail, Colorado and Fat Tail Gallery in Denver, Colorado. Commissions are welcomed.
