About The Art
An Iconic Vision is a retrospective collection of art work in watercolor, pastel, oil and photography from acclaimed actress and accomplished visual artist, and poet, Kim Novak. Novak’s art work, impressionistic and surrealistic, has a dynamic effect where surrealism meets traditional realism. It has a strong appeal in its essence of the ethereal as the artist employs the unique qualities of the pastel medium to render a sense of altering states.
