Kimmel Kozak

A native of Baltimore, I am an artist and art educator living in Northern Baltimore County, Maryland. Coming from a long line of artists, I was always encouraged by my family to pursue art. 

I paint in direct response to what I see and feel, revealing quiet beauty, a sense of belonging, and the overlooked moments of daily life. Life is short and beautiful. It goes too fast, and painting, for me, is a way to hold on to a beautiful moment that has passed. In a way, it is bittersweet. I invite viewers to find their own meaning and connection with the work. Working primarily in watercolor and oil and often from life, my art is grounded in realism yet seeks to capture the essence of every subject.
