About the artist - Kim Curson

Kim’s art features big skies, open landscapes and swirling seas and is inspired by colour and simplicity. 

 “I enjoy painting moments in time and I like the idea of capturing an image which you know you may never see again. 

The gift of being a Mother has helped me to see things through the eyes of a child again and I like to portray something of this childlike innocence and naivety in my paintings”. 

Kim’s images of starry nights and cosy cottages are inspired by some of the children’s stories she has read to her small son. She loves the innocence in the tales and the cosy feeling of being wrapped up together while reading the stories. These feelings are depicted through the tiny cottages with their warm fires burning inside and in the stars in the night skies overhead, where we go to dream in our imaginations and which are full of promise. 

 “I hope you will enjoy the return to a sense of innocence.....”
