Oil portraitist & landscape painter · Alberta

Statement
I paint people in light. My portraits are slow — six to twelve sessions — but the result is something that will outlast both of us. Commissions taken selectively.

Kira painted a portrait of my late father from photographs. I was nervous about the result but she produced something that brought the whole family to tears — in the best way. The painting captures him exactly. I can't recommend her enough.

We commissioned Kira for our boardroom portrait series — six subjects over two years. Every painting is museum quality. She has a rare ability to capture character, not just likeness. Our board members were honoured.
★★★★★Thomas Lindqvist12/29/2025
Kira painted a family portrait for us — four subjects, a complex composition. The process was thorough and respectful, the sittings well-organized. The finished oil is extraordinary. An heirloom piece.

Purchased one of Kira's Foothills landscape series through a local gallery. The painting is stunning in person — photos don't do it justice. She was generous with her time at the opening and happy to discuss her process.
