Bio: Kimberly is a mixed media artist inspired by nature and organic forms. She strives to bring life to her art through the use of texture, light, and form. Her work demonstrates her strong influence of a love for the outdoors which stemmed from her family. She spent many weekends of her childhood in the backseat of the car on family drives, exploring everything from the coast to the mountains of California and the Northwest. Her mother and grandmother were avid gardeners, teaching love and care for the earth and all it has to give. Kimberly began as a commercial photographer. She has photographed for major corporations, advertising agencies and editorial publications. Her work has won several awards including inclusion in the book and exhibition “Ten Thousand Eyes, ASMP” and was awarded the Award of Excellence from “Communication Arts Photography Annual.” More recently she has continued to use her photography both as an inspiration for an artwork or as part of a mixed media piece. Her work is inspired from her perception of nature and the play of highlights and shadows. She currently works for West Windsor Arts.
