From the Mountains to the Sea by Kim Lordier

  • Huse Skelly Gallery 229 Marine Avene, Suite E Balboa Island, CA 92662 USA (map)

Join us for a reception featuring the latest paintings by Kim Lordier. Her new work is inspired by her latest travels up in the Sierra Mountains and down to California’s stunning coastline.

Kim has created a collection that captures the beauty of California’s gorgeous and diverse terrain. She paints in pure pigments better known as soft pastels. Their vibrancy and unique qualities reflect light which helps to create something of a gemlike sparkle.

“I believe authentic creativity, in all forms, is an intimately human endeavor, a way to relate spiritually with one another, a way to feel connected to the beauty of our world. My art is grounded in life’s passions and joy. Ever grateful for the opportunity to visually express my voice in pure pigment, I dance to the rhythms of nature in pastel.” Kim Lordier
