Bio:

Born in Pennsylvania and now living in Sedona, AZ, Kim is inspired by the abundance of nature surrounding her home.

She is a Master-Signature Member of American Women Artists and a Signature Member of Society of Animal Artists.

Artist's Statement:

My life is all about nature and imagination. I try to combine all these elements in my sculptures of flora and fauna. Always insisting on creating unique sculptures, I tend to push the boundaries in bronze with my intricate style. I especially enjoy imagining what life would be like as a small creature in a tree, on a mushroom, or scurrying through plants much larger than I while gathering sustenance. Nature is filled with infinite miracles that never cease to amaze me. I’m blessed to find these miracles surrounding my home every day.

Winning the Purchase Award has such enormous significance for me, it’s every artist’s dream to be in a museum and my work, Lee’s Ferry Landing, will be at the Tucson Desert Art Museum for as long as I live. I’m so thankful to the American Women Artists for that opportunity.”
