Original Artwork by Kim Chestney
All paintings Oil on Canvas.

"Art is about beauty -- art is about finding the
extraordinary in the ordinary, and finding the
mystery and wonder in the worldly things we take
for granted...amidst the entropy of familiarity
breeding contempt, artists, in their successful
moments, bring to light the power and awe that
pervades the mundane -- and then move the viewer
with the profundity of the aesthetic experience...

...this is how and why we fall in love with art.....and as long as we are falling for art, or music, or poetry, or each other -- our souls are alive."
Kim Chestney, 2007
