Kristin Helberg Artworks

Mixed Media

Helberg has always been interested in history and a portion of her artwork reflects that.  Whaling paintings and whaling scenes on boxes, as well as sea monsters attacking ships are part of Helberg’s artwork.  She enjoys creating tavern signs that depict imaginary places in Early America.  Having spent most of her childhood in York County, PA, Helberg was immersed in the painted hex signs on barns and fraktur art and uses those images on the decorative boxes.

Helberg’s paintings are in the permanent collections of The National Portrait Gallery/Smithsonian, the Clinton Presidential Library, the Reginald Lewis Museum of African American Art and the Musee D’Art Naif in Quebec.
