Now one of Suffolk’s most prolific landscape artists, Kimberley Harris’s enchanting floral paintings with stunning atmospheric skies and incredible depth of field are much sort after, not just in her native UK but also globally, particularly the US and Australia.

Born in Ipswich, England in 1988, Kimberley studied Art & Design at the Colchester Institute from 2005 to 2007, later working as a commission artist having tried her hand at jewellery design, she felt her passion was definitely for painting.

Originally using brush and watercolour as her medium, Kimberley switched to oils and the palette knife after meeting and being heavily influenced by a fellow Suffolk artist David Porteous-Butler in 2014.

With a love for JMW Turner and Camille Pissarro’s work, and residing in Suffolk surrounded by the overflowing beauty of the countryside, it is no surprise that Kimberley is enamoured by the east of England’s scenery, multitude of wild flowers, hedgerows, wide open skies and the light, shade and colour within, and of course how they are all effected by natural light at different times of the day.

Using a layering technique and blending with her palette knife, Kimberley has perfected this method and made it her signature style, which brings texture to her oils that do absolute justice to her chosen subject matter.
