Lovingly Remembering My Nana, Claire Barker, The Wind Beneath My Artistic Wings

A gifted artist herself. Her voice expressing her joy for my artwork forever rings in my heart.

About Me

My name is Kimberley Lauton. I am originally from Westfield, NJ. I lived and worked in the surrounding area until  settling in Warren County, NJ in 2005.

My name is Kimberley Lauton. I am originally from Westfield, NJ. I lived and worked in the surrounding area until  settling in Warren County, NJ in 2005. 

I have always been artistically inclined, but it was one day in 1999,  when I decided to sketch my daughter while she watched TV, that I realized I had a gift. I began working with pastels, which led to several commissioned portraits over the years. Painting is my current creative passion. 

The style that comes most naturally to me is realism, although I enjoy other styles as well. My favorite mediums are oil, acrylic and pastel.  

Hairstyling has been a really wonderful art form for me since 1985, and has served as my primary career to date. I worked as a stylist in Westfield and Cranford until 2009, when I decided to open my own salon in Washington, NJ, to work closer to home and my children. Being a "people person", and also having a passion for Holistic Health, I became a certified Integrative Nutrition Health counselor. I am also a Reiki Master and reflexologist, and I was motivated to incorporate these practices into my service repertoire within my salon in 2019. 

Though I have always enjoyed artwork as a second trade, my busy salon career and  raising my family have occupied most of my time, keeping my art projects to few and far between.  With renewed ambition, I felt called to fully embrace my artwork in 2020. I feel very fortunate to be able to combine all of these passions into my business space, to showcase my artwork  and host paint night events. 

My Inspiration

"I see art everywhere! I am moved to create visual treasures from beautiful scenes and  meaningful moments.  I am particularly inspired by the beautiful wildlife, landscapes and iconic scenes  of Cape May, NJ.  I also love to capture special moments which may invoke feeling to those who can relate! Whether I am working on a piece that is 

"I see art everywhere!

Whether I am working on a piece that is special to me, or a portrait of a loved one for someone, I step into the moment, and really come to feel the subject's essence. Every painting contains a piece of my heart." The above painting was inspired from the magnificent photography of Dennis Flanagan.

Sharing the Joy

Sharing the Joy

I love spreading the joy to others by showing them how they can create beautiful artwork of their own!  I hold public and private paint night events, at my own venue, which is within Headliners Salon, or another.
