Kingwood Center Gardens

Kingwood Center Gardens

Kingwood Center Gardens is beautiful in the spring! Tulips are everywhere and every color! The bright colors in equine artist Karen Brenner’s paintings pop beside the brilliant blooms. The formal gardens and elegant architecture of this Mansfield, Ohio treasure are delightful to visit whenever flowers are blooming.

The former estate of Charles Kelley King, this 47 acre garden has been open to the public since 1953. It is located at 50 N. Trimble Rd., Mansfield, Ohio.

Here are some photos from the Horse Paintings on the Go adventure.

The bright yellow tulips on the new visitor center patio and lining the promenade to the mansion are almost the exact yellow of the tent behind the Gypsy Horse in this painting by Karen Brenner.

Friesian painting by Karen Brenner
The majestic entrance to the mansion would be the perfect setting for a carriage pulled by Friesians, such as those in this Karen Brenner painting.

The new visitor center which houses a banquet hall, gift shop, greenhouse and cafe is in the background of this photo. In the foreground a Percheron dances in a field of color – colors echoed in the gardens in the middle of the photo.
