Last year, I had some fun making a Top 10 list so I thought I would make it a tradition. These are ten of my personal favourites. It's a good exercise to look over your body of work. Certainly, some made me cringe but happily many made me smile. I can see what I learned this year and have a clear picture of what I want to study the year ahead. Wishing all of you a New Year filled with affection, peace and kindness!

what a great idea!! and these top ten are indeed amazing!! your shapes are so strong and boldly painted, your palette and handling of values all perfection! i so enjoyed seeing your favorites together like this! a wonderful body of work i would be incredibly proud to have done. bravo and happy new year!
I can see why these made the top ten! Love them all!
It is always fun to see what the artist views as thier favorite. This a great idea! They are all wonderful. It must have been challenging to determine which ones were favorites...your work is so strong. Happy New year!!
I love all your work and it must have been hard to choose top ten. Fun to see which ones you liked...great idea. Have a happy new year!
Your top ten are amazing! I love each one - and more that aren't posted in the top! It's a great idea.
Happy New Year to you, too!!
I think pot, wine and mango is my favourite of the top 10. Maybe it's the title; sounds like a Saturday night many years ago, hahahahaha.
But seriously, the colour and composition just work for me. I really like the pot colour. Nice stuff Kim! All the best in the New Year!
I must admit that's a really great idea, and you have some great pieces selected. They are all gems but the plums look so delicious right now.
All the best in the New Year!
These are so gorgeous Kim. And it's so fun to look back at all of these, I don't remember a couple. And here I thought I was your number one fan. Jeez. :) I'm going to 'borrow' your idea. I hope you have a happy New Year Kim! Thanks so much for being my friend. :):):)
I love this idea and love seeing your favorite 10, as always a beautiful selection for you to share with us!
Kim I found you through Crystal. Wonderful works of art!!
Happy New Years!

Such a great idea! I'm going to do the same! Fabulous paintings! Happy New Year!!!
What a great idea! And after I looked at them all - I wanted more! Well, there is always 2011...
Happy New Year, Kim, thanks for so much good art!

Great post, Kim. Strong shapes and strong values make all of these winners!
Really great paintings and a great year for you, Kim! I love this top ten idea. It is fun to see what paintings you personally like the best. It's fun to speculate about what made you choose each one...is it something you learned, or is it a particular technique, or just the finished painting you pull off.... All of these are terrific paintings! Here's to another great year!
I think "Holiday Table" is my favorite. You know me, always drawn to darkness and moodiness :-)
A great selection.
Happy New Year and Happy Painting!
We'll have to have that "get together"in the New Year!
Great choices. I had to chuckle about the 'cringe' remark. They aren't all winners are they, but usually someone else will see something wonderful in a painting I consider unsuccessful. Thus, I never tell which ones I don't favor.
Happy New Year and thanks for the great idea. I might use it meself ;)
Nice to see your top ten paintings! You've done so many amazing work in the past year Kim! Congrats to that! Wishing you a very happy and successful New Year! :)
So sorry to see my trainers wher not in that top ten because they sure were in mine. I have loved all of your work every one of them. I had a comment on my blog from your father so like father like daughter. Thanks for all the comments and support in 2010 and I wish you well for 2011. if I ever blog again I hope you will sill be here inspiring me.
These are all wonderful but Dec 7th vino is my fav! You have a great eye for composition.
So fun and love the diversity Kim!
