Jamie Kirkland

Art Brokerage: Jamie Kirkland American Artist: Jamie Kirkland, one of the Southwest's premier abstract landscape painters, has a unique voice and a sophisticated contemporary take on traditional landscape painting. Her technique is a process of action and reaction, resulting in many layers of paint and achieving an overall sense of color harmony. She is a consummate colorist, mixing many of her paints directly on the canvas. Collectors have commented that they are drawn to the quiet, meditative feeling and harmonious color palettes that appear in many of Jamie's pieces. In 2006, Southwest Art magazine selected her as "an artist to watch." Her paintings have been shown by the Utah Arts Council; the Museum of Fine Arts, Santa Fe, New Mexico; the Pensacola Museum of Fine Art (Florida); and other prominent arts organizations. In 2007, Jamie was invited to become a member of the National Association of Women Artists, which was founded in 1889 and is the oldest professional women's fine art organization in the United States. Many of Jamie's paintings come from an imaginary place, which she desires to experience and convey. She also draws inspiration from her vast archive of digital photographs. Jamie is drawn to the expansive vistas of the West as well as the lush humid landscape and waterways of her native South. Jamie's work hangs in many prominent public, corporate, and private collections throughout the United States. Listings wanted.
