Early inspiration
Kim grew up in Manitoba and owned horses from the age of ten. That early, daily life among them, watching how they moved, rested, and carried themselves, became the foundation of everything she paints.
Training
She studied Fine Arts at the University of Manitoba, where she built a disciplined command of anatomy, proportion, and tone, and the ability to translate subtle detail into convincing realism.
Her approach
Every painting begins with careful observation. Kim works exclusively in acrylic, focusing on structure, expression, and the natural personality of each horse until it feels present on the canvas.
The studio today
Kim paints from her studio in rural Alberta, outside Lacombe, surrounded by the landscapes and animals that fill her work. She accepts a limited number of commissions each year.
Selected works

Pieces that collectors return to again and again, in originals and limited editions.
Held in private collections
Her horses live in homes across the world.
Kim's originals hang in private collections across North America and abroad, and her commissioned work has captured beloved horses for Olympians, corporations, and collectors who wanted a particular horse remembered for good. A four-time Best of Show winner, her paintings have been published in Horse & Rider, U.S. Art, and The Paint Horse Journal, and licensed internationally for calendars, puzzles, greeting cards, and stationery. In 2026 her work was chosen for the Guards Polo Club Official Yearbook, recognition on a world stage.
