have always loved art and music.  Back in school I made really good grades in these two subjects. I will always remember a turning point in my life when I had come home from school with my report card in hand...so excited about making such a good grade in my two FAVORITE classes, and telling my dad my Art and Music teachers had given me an A++ in BOTH classes!  He abruptly said, "Any idiot can make straight A's in art and music...how's your MATH!!!  Well, needless to say...I was CRUSHED and there laid down any hope of doing anything "worthwhile" that I truly enjoyed.

o...I continued doing great in art and music and failing MISERABLY in math and everything else that took the working of the left side of my brain!  I graduated from High School by the "skin of my teeth" and that fall enrolled in a local Junior College and there again, loved my music and art classes.  But in order to get a Liberal Arts degree I had to take and PASS a math class.  Fundamentals of Math....ummmmm like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and an introduction to fractions!  Ha!  Well.....I stayed true to form and managed to fail math yet again.

oon after my second semester of college, I dropped out, got married, and had three wonderful children. When I turned thirty years of age I started rediscovering who I REALLY was and began a healing journey with my heavenly Father.  At age 34, I had my 4th child and our quiver was full.

had worked a couple of waitressing jobs in the evening to help make ends meet.  It took quite a toll on our family life so my husband and I decided it would be best that I stay home and we would live on his salary alone.

hroughout our marriage, I had enjoyed craft projects and sold a few here and there, but nothing was ever steady nor what we needed to supplement our income. In 1990 I discovered oven bake clay and went to a local dress shop and asked the owner if I could take some dresses home so that I could make earrings to match them.  She said yes and I did and sold the earrings as the dresses sold.

ne day I was working with the clay and I made a small figure~it was so cute, and I had an impression in my heart from the Lord and He said," Kim, this is good." "If you keep your priorities straight...I will bless the work of your hands".

o...my last 19 years has been a long but sweet journey full of ebbs and flows of creativity, trial and error, learning and listening to my Creator on what "works" and what doesn't.  Laughing....crying, during the process of this wonderful life and loving the opportunity that I have to create and share it with you. Thank you so much for your interest in my work,  I hope that it will inspire you, make you laugh, cry, and evoke thought that will be pleasurable to you.
