Casebeer, Kim
Kim Casebeer was born and raised in Kansas on a family farm. As part of a fourth generation farm family, she has been connected to the land for a long time. Kim still lives in Kansas and draws her inspiration from the simplicity of the Flint Hills, an area of wide open ranch land. "It's a simple landscape," she says. "It's not grandiose. You have to spend some time and let it speak to you." Now days Kim also feels at home painting in Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Wyoming. "I think the simplicity of the Kansas landscape has helped me find the essence of other places. I'm able to focus on what's important in a composition. It's as much as what's not in the painting as what is."
Kim's work has been featured in magazine articles in Southwest Art, American Artist, American Art Collector and The Pastel Journal, and has been published in a book titled Living the Artist’s Life. She is a signature member of the Pastel Society of America and the American Women Artists, and has also exhibited with the Oil Painters of America and the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters. She has received awards through each of these organizations, as well as the Salon International Show, the American Academy of Women Artists, Scottsdale Artists School Best and Brightest, the Pastel Journal’s Pastel 100 Competition and The Artist’s Magazine Competition. Kim has participated in museum shows such as the C.M. Russell Masters in Miniature Show and the American Art in Miniature Show at the Gilcrease Museum. Her work was included in “Homage to the Flint Hills,” a 3 year traveling exhibit ending with a show in the Senate offices in Washington D.C. Kim has work in many private, corporate and museum collections throughout the United States.
