About Kimberly

“This world is but a canvas to our imagination.” ~ Henry David Thoreau

Artist Bio:

Kimberly Domangue (b. 1967, USA) is a Central Texas Western Artist who specializes in oils, acrylics, watercolors, pastels, photography, pottery and sculpture. Her artwork varies from cowboy art, Native American, portraits, western, equine, livestock, weddings, Christian, landscapes & still life’s.

Kimberlys’ artistic style is self-proclaimed as loose realism. She is fond of deep, natural colors replicating the subjects or photographs that she captures. Kimberly strives to give the viewer a connection to her artwork not only through their visual impact, but also through the stories behind her work.

Kimberly loves to incorporate antique or period frames onto many of her pieces to add a unique, rustic-regal feel to them. You can read more about this in her blog: It's All About The Frame — KD ART - Kimberly Domangue Art

Kimberly has a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Design with a concentration in Interior Design from Colorado State University. She designed hundreds of residential model homes and sales offices for National homebuilders from coast to coast for a few decades.

After retiring from design Kimberly spent a lot of time behind the camera capturing new images to replicate into her paintings. This task quickly turned into a very successful photography career for many years, which she still owns and operates today alongside her art.

Kimberly caters her talents towards galleries, curators, art enthusiasts, art collectors, and art lovers with her custom commissions and engaging pieces.

Artist Statement:

I have been blessed with a creative hand since childhood, following in my mothers’ footsteps who is an avid oil painter. Drawing and painting has always been one of my favorite things to do since I was little. My jr. high art teacher also made a great impression on me and taught me art techniques that I will never forget. I have been fortunate to train under many various mentors and artists, along the way, who have guided me though my practices.

I grew up on a ranch raising and showing livestock and horses. Agriculture is in my blood so naturally it comes out in many of my Western works. The fond memories of my childhood and life events spur my creations and inspire my directions in art.

To prevent burn out, I like to stay diversified in my work with both mediums, subjects and services. This is why you’ll see anything from oils to acrylics and watercolors to sculptures within my portfolio. My studio routinely has 10+ projects in production at the same time ranging from various paintings, sculptures and pottery. I can spin my chair around to work on different easels or clay projects on a whim. While something is drying, another piece is waiting for my attention, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

My vision and goal with my artwork is to learn, create and master all that I can during the time that God continues to give me. There is no other passion in Life (other than Christ and family) that I possess more than art.

It is important to me to have my followers, art collectors and lovers of art all feel a deep connection of awe and fondness to what they observe in my artwork while also finding a strong interest in the stories of how they became.

Kimberlys’ Personal Life:

Kimberly and her husband live on their family ranch in Hico, Texas. In Kimberlys’ spare time, she loves to spend time with her family, horses, cattle, goats, dog, cats and her favorite donkey, Pearl. You’ll often see Kimberly and her husband supporting the local FFA and 4H chapters, or attending local livestock shows, rodeos & sporting events. A good hike, a day on their pontoon, or time in the garden are also things she enjoys when she’s not creating.
