Kim Lordier is an extraordinary pastel painter whose works are cherished by collectors from around the world. Her path to becoming a full-time painter took flight in unexpected ways. Beginning with earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree she became – a flight attendant! Soon, though, she returned with firm resolve to making fine art her life’s work.

For the first two decades of her painting career, she focused primarily on the landscape – both from life in and in her studio. Filled with rich color, her landscapes demonstrate her unique spirit of mark-making. In time, her love of horses began to fill her paintings. Fascinated with the strength and grace of the horse, Kim conveys their power and gentility by painting them in their surroundings. Her work has been showcased on the cover of Art of the West, PleinAir Magazine, Southwest Art, The Pastel Journal, Western Art and Architecture, and Fine Art Connoisseur. Kim is a Signature Member of the California Art Club, the Pastel Society of America, Laguna Plein Air Painters Association, and a Distinguished Pastelist of the Pastel Society of the West Coast. A coveted workshop instructor, Kim leads workshops across the country.

Kim’s pastel paintings certainly arrest the viewer’s heart with shimmering light, texture, and beauty. Kim Lordier’s paintings capture the spirit of nature with deep reverence and allow the viewer a beautiful glimpse into her artist-heart that reflects An Inner Strength.
