Pottery and Mixed-Media Work
Kimberly is a self taught artist and arts advocate who developed her skills during her career as an elementary school teacher. She currently volunteers as an arts instructor, supporting people in both the bereavement and cancer care communities
Kimberly takes inspiration from the garden and by examining the beauty of the natural world. She finds organic shapes and contrasting colours interesting and lets them drive her creative process. Recent works include unique, one of a kind handcrafted pottery and mixed media art.
Mixed Media Artwork
This series of Newfoundland landscapes was inspired by recent travels. Following a simple sketch, Kimberly “painted” with modelling paste and a palette knife. She also incorporated cheesecloth and a variety of acrylic media to create vibrant images that reflect the beauty of this Atlantic province.
Alcohol Ink Print Boxes
Kim’s most recent work includes experimenting with alcohol ink. Using a variety of vibrant coloured inks on Yupo paper, she allows the fluid movement of the medium guide the creative process. The focus of each print is finding colour combinations that accentuate the abstract imagery that appears. Once dried, origami techniques are used to create gift boxes in a variety of sizes.
