About Kim Ford Kitz
Kim grew up in Southern California. For as long as she can remember, she has been surrounded by creative people. She spent many hours watching her parents rehearse and perform onstage, and most of her other relatives paint, design, and play music.
Since completing her BFA at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco in 2005, Kim has dedicated her energy to creating, exhibiting, and collaborating.
Kim is a full-time artist. She is currently living and working in the Point Reyes National Seashore area of Northern California. She has also had successful careers in floral design, visual merchandising, and theatrical set and scenic design.
Working predominantly with oil paint, Kim has been featured in over 40 shows and 9 solo exhibitions, including the de Young Museum; artMarket San Francisco; Seager Gray Gallery; Bolinas Museum; Sausalito Art Festival Winner; Berkeley Art Center; and Sundance Gallery. She is a Santa Cruz Art League mixed media winner and has won numerous awards and created several notable commissions.
Aside from making art, her life looks like hanging out with friends and family, cooking and enjoying wine, dancing at music events, and shopping for antiques.
