"I am a landscape and still life painter. I paint the ordinary that surrounds us, in order to illuminate how extraordinary life is - but often, we “unlearn to see it” as we grow up. I am curious about the intersection of the natural world, in it’s beauty and untamed energy, with the human world. I’ve immersed myself in painting the St. Croix River and surrounding area for the past seventeen years. Each time I start a painting, I am fascinated in how nature, particularly the river, reveals layers of mystery that include a sense of place, a sense of time, and the concept that the fleeting moment can be captured and experienced by others in the future, through my art.”
KAMI POLZIN



Kami Polzin is an inspired painter and an inspiring teacher whose enthusiasm for painting and teaching is contagious. Kami grew up just North of Stillwater, MN on the family farm where her daily wanderings taught her to have a great love and respect for the qualities of the natural world that would later provide her with the inspiration that has led her on a life long journey as a painter.

RICHARD MEACOCK
"My favourite art teacher, who also taught me how to teach, used to describe a magical triangle made up of the eye, the brain and the hand; the scrutiny, the interpretation of the nuances of light on objects, and the technical ability to manipulate paint and brush. When painting is going well for me I am lost in this triangle and the wonders it encompasses."

"Painting becomes consideration and meditation, and the outcome is irrelevant compared with the process."
