 Kime Buzzelli found early inspiration in her collection of "paper dolls," constantly creating costumes and dramas for them. When she began painting, this "narrative" of fashion informed her work, painting women with a dialogue designed from an addiction to clothing. This is the basis of Buzzelli's work today.
Known for her paintings of wayward nymphs, broken-hearted waifs and androgynous party girls, Kime explores the pain, joy, and integration of fashion in the feminine psyche. After studying fashion illustration at Parson's School of Design in New York, Buzzelli earned two degrees in painting and art education from Ohio State University.
