About Artist Kim Norlien ~
Breathtaking realism, creativity, perseverance, as well as a personal commitment to excellence, have garnered Kim Norlien wide appeal from collectors and artists alike. Norlien is known for his attention to detail. Using a combination of hand painting and airbrush, each painting is lovingly handcrafted. Kim takes inspiration for his paintings from his Midwestern surroundings.
After high school, Norlien studied Commercial Art where he quickly rose to the top of his class. Following his graduation, Norlien spent the next eight years working as a commercial artist for Honeywell key lining technical manuals, cartooning, and hand drawing military scenes. In 1986, Norlien resigned his position at Honeywell to become a freelance illustrator. His work for national companies, including Musicland, General Mills, Carlson Companies, Honeywell and 3M among others, won him awards and national recognition.
His resignation not only led to a successful freelance career, but also allowed Norlien the opportunity to begin painting on a part-time basis. His first published print was released in 1991. Since then he has published ten other prints with diverse subjects including wild animals and birds, as well as domestic animals and nostalgic scenes.
Norlien's work has garnered numerous awards and honors. In 1997, he was invited to be featured as the spotlight artist for the Wildlife Heritage Art Show. He has received Best of Show awards, including one from the National Wildlife Art Show, and the 1996 People's Choice award at the Wildlife Heritage Art Show.
Shown below is "Aurora Bliss" a gorgeous scenic landscape art print by artist Kim Norlien.
This is an outstanding winter scenic art print full of the "winter wonderland" look of the "cabin on the lakefront" theme.
The magic of the scene is the warm lighted cabin on the frozen lake, the incredibly detailed snow on the trees, and the amazing, dazzling aurora borealis in full color just filling the starlit sky above the cozy, romantic cabin on the lake.
It's a beautiful little piece of winter wonderland paradise. The beauty of Kim Norlien's paintings are the incredible, fine detail put into each item. Each painting makes you feel like you are "there" instead of just looking at a fine art print. You are somehow transported into the print, as though you were on the edge of the scene yourself.
