About Kayla King

Kayla King is an abstract painter living and working in California. With the mountains and sea both at her doorstep, her work is largely influenced by motion: physical landscape, energy, and sound all playing a large role in what is eventually translated to the finished piece. Stories are told in overlapping layers and marks, creating a visual language that seeks to express a moment or memory suspended in time. Find original paintings on her website at kaylaking.com

Hey Kayla, I'm so sorry about that! I know I've seen your desktop dowload recently but I didn't bother to look back at it when I created mine to make sure it was different. I really didn't mean to rip you off like that, I'll take it down now. :(

Hi Kayla, just water to say congratulations on having your Constellation Dreams art print featured in this month's Pregnancy and Newborn magazine. If you send me your address, I can try to snag a copy from the doctor's office when I am there next month. :)
