In
a moment of clarity, Kimry Jelen left the corporate world and her
life as a fashion designer to train and paint horses. The accolades
she received from companies like Nike, Royal Robbins and O'Neill
pale in comparison to the joy she receives from interpreting her
love of these magnificent creatures. Her contemporary style flows
freely, from abstract to representational, and demonstrates an
intimate understanding of her subjects. Each painting seems to be a
celebration of her new life of balance and purpose. While still
considered an emerging artist, Kimry's astonishing volume of work
has found its way into exhibitions and corporate and private
collections throughout the West.
In the Spring of 2007, Kimry went even deeper into her vision of
equine art by training and studying in the classic arenas of
Portugal and Spain. Today she continues to work as a professional
horse trainer and painter in Central Oregon.
High Desert Gallery & Custom Framing of Central Oregon is honored to
exclusively represent Kimry Jelen in Central Oregon. |
