All you need to do to understand the quality of this young man's work is take a look at it: It speaks for itself. Anyone can see how beautiful this is and I challenge anyone to say that they would not love to have one of Kent's paintings hanging in a prominent spot in their life.

Kent has a very unique style that is extremely intriguing and fun to look at. I have one of his originals hanging in my office and love it! He has a wide range of content that he paints and his use of geometric shapes and bold colors never get boring. I would highly recommend checking out his social media sites and reach out to him if you see something you would like to purchase. He is a super nice guy!

I first met Kent when we were in high school and his love of art and the act of creation has grown more and more each year. He incoporates the mountain environment he loves as well as his own heart and soul into each and every painting presenting a unique and gorgeous view of a little piece of our wonderful world. I am truly impressed with the skill and passion Kent has for his art. Thank you for making the world a more beautiful place.

I usually prefer hyperrealistic paintings, but I find myself drawn to Kent's artistic style. It's somehow detailed and abstract at the same time. If you, like me, find that there are too many great ones to decide, he does also have a book available that includes many of his most beautiful works. Definitely one of my favorite artists.

I met Kent in October of 2018,an artist friend of my nephew,Brian.We lost Brian,also an artist, in July of 2017.It was wonderful for my sister to hear Kent’s stories of friendship between him and Brian.In addition to friendship and their art connection,Kent also is a gifted artist.Many of his paintings hang in an Italian restaurant,Sorrento’s,in Banner Elk,N.C. I love the one Kent did this fall of Janis Joplin.I have Brian’s Joplin painting proudly hanging in my home. Kent’s creative spirit shines through in his art and personality. My sister and I loved meeting him in Boone N.C.this past fall.

Kent is an Amazing artist. He puts so much heart and passion into each and everyone of his pieces. I bought a deer picture for my house and received so many compliments even to the point I had someone beg me for it. I plan on buying many more. The paintings are truly unique and one of a kind. I highly recommend purchasing one of his masterpieces.

I've seen many of Kent's original works up close and personal. With varied subject matter, all his paintings are powerfully evocative and exciting to the viewer. Colors and brushwork are usually bold and expressive, but he can produce delicate renditions as well. One of his works from 2005 is aptly named 'An Expression To Remember' and hangs on my wall and I never tire of it. The woman's beautiful and stirring face is difficult to describe in words and each viewer may see something different. Haughty, sad, jaded, thoughtful ? A truly inspired and creative force is Kent Paulette.

Kent has such great artistic sensibility. His voice is quite unique as he provides fresh, unique perspective on universal themes. He is also responsive and timely as a commissioned artist. As someone who has commissioned two different works from Kent, he eloquently captured the essence of my children when he painted them.

Kent is a spectacular artist, we have purchased many many pieces from his collection. We also commissioned him to paint a portrait of my Mother from a photograph. He did a wonderful job!! She's so beautiful and he brought her youthfulness to the canvas just like in the photo! The paintings I've attached are the commissioned painting of my Mother, the first painting we purchased and a very special floral!!! We also have 2 other paintings from Kent 🙂 I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for an amazing artist!

So much creativity! Kent is able to add vibrant color and movement to all of life's physical aspects, in his paintings.

We have Kent Paulette's Family Time Painting in our North Georgia Cabin. We went to Sugar Mountain and saw this painting in Banner Elk at Sorrento's Italian Restaurant. Next ski trip up to Sugar Mtn... we went to see Kent's Art Gallery and purchased this painting. Every person who comes into our home comments about the uniqueness of Kent's modern nature style. 🙂 We felt that this "Family Time" painting captures our family of 3 perfectly!

Kent's work is unlike any other.... pictures don't do his paintings justice! If you're fortunate enough to see him paint, that's the real treat!

A wonderful guy to talk to in general he really lives up to what it's like to live in the High Country also a great experience. Artist he never fails to show new techniques and innovative and creative ideas.

I purchased Kent Paulette’s painting “Appalachia Rising” in 2018 for our new home in Texas. I first saw the painting hanging at the Chef’s Table in Banner Elk, NC. Kent had it bubble-wrapped & securely boxed up & shipped within the week. I love it!

Kent is an incredibly talented artist. Diverse in his mediums, he is able to capture and paint whatever you are looking for perfectly. His eye for detail and uncovering nature’s beauty is spot on. We had him paint something very specific and delivered it earlier than expected and well beyond our expectations. Kent is wonderful to work with and unlike any artist we have met.

A very cool profile of an excellent High Country Mountain artist. Kent Paulette and his paintings are worth the drive to western North Carolina, along with the nature that he captures there in his work with every stroke.

Kent captures the sprit of animals and people alike in his paintings. The amount texture and depth he is able to create in each work of art is something that should be observed in person. Absolutely beautiful!

I have seen Kent's work from his earliest days and am amazed at the work he has produced. His paintings come alive with color and texture and make one feel as if it's come to life. I look forward to seeing his future work and am glad to say he's a product of my hometown.

Kent’s artwork is exceptional. I love his use of colors and textures. Each piece is unique. I especially enjoy his landscapes, animals, and portraits.

We have known Kent for many years. We went to an opening of his many years ago and fell in love with his work. Our piece is The Viaduct and we continually receive compliments on it. Thanks Kent for sharing your work with us.
