Kim Parker is an internationally acclaimed artist, designer, and author based in New York City. Her signature style is exuberant floral art, and her designs and artwork have been distributed worldwide on designer rugs, dinnerware, bedding and bath, wallpaper and fabric, wall art, and stationery.

Coming from a family of accomplished musicians and artists, Parker was exposed to works of art and beautiful music at an early age, which fostered a love of both. Classically trained as a flutist at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, Parker taught herself the fundamentals of floral painting and textile design between concerts and in her free time. Her foundation in music has proved to be useful in her design life as it has given her a sense of lyricism, discipline, and harmony that is key to the process of creating a visually pleasing pattern.

Parker’s floral designs have garnered three British design awards: the ELLE Decoration Award, the D&D Award (Design & Decoration), and the Observer Magazine Award. Her work has appeared in numerous publications such as The New York Times, British Vogue, Elle, House & Garden, Architectural Digest, The London Guardian, The World of Interiors, and Country Living magazine.

Published books by Parker include Kim Parker Home: A Life in Design, Interior Gardens: A New York Memoir, and a children’s book, Counting in the Garden.

When not painting floral textile designs or floral and abstract fine art, Parker enjoys playing Brazilian jazz and improvising to all kinds of music. She is an avid writer and diarist, and passionately advocates for both human and animal rights.
