<p>Kim is an artist who embraces the practice of perceptual painting. She seeks to create a believable, atmospheric visual experience for the viewer through careful attention to unified color relationships that capture conditions of light and space. Form in her paintings emerges from these unified color foundations.&nbsp; Recently, she began working primarily from life because this approach is most conducive to capturing a sensory response to her subject matter.</p>
<p>Kim has been an artist for over fifteen years.&nbsp; She built the foundation for her oil painting skills through extensive study at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia.&nbsp; More recently she completed Master Class studies with Brooklyn artist, Christine LaFuente, and she is currently engaged in ongoing private study with Peter Van Dyck, a Philadelphia-based artist and teacher at PAFA who was educated at The Florence Academy of Art in Italy.</p>
<p>Kim exhibits her work at fine art galleries in Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs.&nbsp; She is a member of Oil Painters of America (OPA), an organization dedicated to the preservation of representational painting, and the Delaware Valley Art League.</p>
