As a painter Kimberly studies atmospheric effects in the landscape. Color shifts caused by weather, water and temperature change have been the focus of her images for many years. Her work is done on location and represents the great influence nature has on her understanding of environment and the human experience of habitat. Kimberly has been helping clients shape the interior and exterior of their homes and businesses with color for over twenty four years. Using a landscape painter's skill of illusion, Kimberly collaborates with architects, designers and homeowners to create color plans that define space and create atmosphere for the complete finish of the architecture, providing comfort and efficiency of design. For over thirty five years Kimberly has used color to explore nature, shape environments and teach visual perceptions and painting skills. She holds a BFA from the University of New Hampshire and an MFA from Tufts University and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. Kimberly currently teaches color design and site specific art at the college level.
