Kit Hevron Mahoney has over twenty five years experience as a fine artist and design professional. Her background includes business, fine art, illustration and graphic design. Kit graduated from the University of Colorado and the Colorado Institute of Art where she also taught graphic design and drawing for over 15 years. Kit has been showing nationwide in solo and group exhibitions and her work has been included in the Colorado Governor’s Invitational, the Gilcrease Musuem’s American Art in Miniature Invitational, Oil Painters of America and has won awards in the National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society. Her work is in both private and corporate collections including the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs and McGraw Hill Publishers in Dayton, Ohio and the private collection of actor Jack Nicholson. Kit is passionate about traveling and painting stunning landscapes and florals that represent her interpretation of the many places she visits. Her bold, energetic palette knife and brush paintings are available through her studio, national galleries, and by private commission. Her new style in oils has developed from painting in pastels for 14 years and is approached much like her pastels, building layers of paint, resulting in bold and colorful textural images. "My paintings are a response to the passion and beauty I feel from and for Nature. As an artist I want to communicate visually and vibrantly the peace and serenity that is found in Nature. My dynamic compositions are a unique style of contemporary Impressionism with a bold use of color and texture."
