From eating playdough to selling a painting
This timeline follows significant moments in my personal journey of becoming a lifelong artist. -
Finger painting and tie-dye at the cottage
As a youngster, my family would rent a cottage each summer with my mother's twin's family. Our mothers made sure we were well entertained with kid-friendly artistic activities. -
Dance Classes
I began ballet very young. I thought of myself primarily as a dancer until I was much older. -
Kindergaarten
A classroom helper taught me to write my name, KIM. A writer was born! -
The Dragon Story
In grade one, I wrote a long story about a dragon and coloured it's picture purple and green. -
Whale Research
In grade 3 I created a whale research project... in the shape of a whale! -
Highschool Art!
M. Bougie taught me all kinds of things! I made a mosaic, a photorealistic half-portrait, and conceptual art. -
Photography at Bayside
Mr. Freeman taught me about light and shadow, aperture and shutter speed. He taught me to experiment. -
Artist in Community Education
I did a special program at Queen's University for Artist-Teachers, where I experimented with lots of different disciplines, including harmonica! -
Travelled to China
The stress of this trip led to a reawakening of my visual creative side. -
Professional!
I came back to Queen's for my Masters and sold a painting!
