Northern Wisconsin based abstract painter, Kimberly Erickson, has been creating alcohol ink on aluminum paintings since 2015. Her unique paintings sometimes have a landscape or natural feel, as she draws inspiration from her rural surroundings in Dunbar. She is especially drawn to water, which is evident in her flowy style in many of her pieces. Kimberly’s paintings are almost luminescent with rich, vibrant colors as light influences the depth of color. Her artwork transitioned from one-of-a-kind clocks, where she inked the aluminum faces, to paintings that she showcases in Midwest galleries. Erickson graduated with a BS in art from UW La Crosse.
