“Translator of Reality and Beyond”
Kim has shared his abilities with many students and groups. He lectured and spoke many times, at the Art Center, at B.Y.U., and the Conference that Happens to be in Park City. He has taught at the School of Visual Arts, in N.Y.C., the University of Utah, and the Salt Lake Community College.
Kim’s style has evolved through several mediums over the decades, including Graphite drawings, watercolors, acrylics, pastels, oils, and oils combined with egg tempera. Kim continues to grow as an artist, he feels his art is constantly opening doors on new vistas. “Each medium has been like learning a new language-and has spawned the desire to become fluent, whatever the subject matter”.
“Often an artist is measured not just by skill, but by a particular way of seeing. I have known, collected and admired Kim Whitesides for over 20 years. His work has always remained on the cutting edge of social trends and new technologies. His subjects are just either side of the middle, even when they are mainstream. Kim enjoys the delight of a rich imagination, a purely original point of view, and the support of a fine skill.” – Robert Redford
