Let me introduce myself. I’m Hannah West, Kim’s website designer and print sales assistant.
This post originally announced Kim’s wish to retire from selling limited edition giclée prints of her paintings. Following that, there was a long pause during which she was not available to sign and ship her prints. During that time, people wrote us to express their serious interest and request they be placed on a notification list in the event prints again became available.
Kim decided to go ahead for a while with a 2026 print sale, and her Art for Sale page is now open to individuals who would like to shop for her giclées. Those previously on the list were notified, and we have now caught up with their orders. As a result, we are now able to start a new “wait list.” Once you are on the list, you will be notified and given a “heads up” to place your order through PayPal.
To anyone who tried to purchase a giclée print in the past week or two and couldn’t, we have resolved that issue and you can place your order now.
Whether or not you purchase a print, Kim deeply appreciates you and your interest in her art.
Kim’s website has become so much more than just a business. It has given her the opportunity to get to know you—and you to know her. Your appreciation has inspired beyond words. It has given her the needed boost to keep painting her feelings.
Kim’s book, “KIM NOVAK: HER ART AND LIFE” is still available and sold through the Butler Museum, which owns all the rights and profits. (You can find the signed copy here and the unsigned copy here.) Their email address is [email protected] and their phone number is (330) 743-1107.

The Ecstasy and Agony of Healing
The Tides of Humanity

Pastel over Mineral Spirits Underpainting
I would like to share a quote from my wise and wonderful mentor Richard McKinley, for my painting, The Tides of Humanity.
“When I look at the painting, I see you Kim – The creative soul looking into the vastness of the open sea of artistic possibilities, feet grounded in the shifting sands of mankind’s earth being washed and caressed by an ocean of something more.”
– Richard McKinley

Looking Back to See Ahead

Pastel over Watercolor Underpainting
“When I’m not sure what I want to paint, I rely on my underpainting to give me inspiration. It excites my senses to watch the colors flow to and fro as I move the surface. It satisfies my desire for freedom. I often make a game of it to decide where I want to go next. Like when I was a child playing with a ouija board, using unconscious thoughts and feelings to guide your hands and fingers – so I did that with this painting. First it led me to a waterfall which you can still see, especially on the upper right side of my painting; then the water parted and it led me to her – a lovely young girl looking back at me!
