Kim English

Legacy Artist 2016

“I’m always searching for an image that tells a story. They are all around us; the stories of everyday life. Being at the same time familiar and unique, they inspire me to find meaning in the experiences we all share.”

“Immediacy is important not only because it is often the nature of people, but, for me, it is the most instinctive way to paint. The process is like a performance. “It’s the magic of spontaneous work combined with a candid observation of society that allows me to pursue the daily events of ordinary people as the theme of my work.”

Born in 1957, Kim English was raised in a small community in Colorado. He attended Rocky Mountain School of Art. Currently he receives inspiration traveling throughout the world, capturing images of everyday life.
