This timeline follows significant moments in my personal journey of becoming a lifelong artist.
-
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.
-
I began ballet very young. I thought of myself primarily as a dancer until I was much older.
-
A classroom helper taught me to write my name, KIM. A writer was born!
-
In grade one, I wrote a long story about a dragon and coloured it's picture purple and green.
-
In grade 3 I created a whale research project... in the shape of a whale!
-
M. Bougie taught me all kinds of things! I made a mosaic, a photorealistic half-portrait, and conceptual art.
-
Mr. Freeman taught me about light and shadow, aperture and shutter speed. He taught me to experiment.
-
I did a special program at Queen's University for Artist-Teachers, where I experimented with lots of different disciplines, including harmonica!
-
The stress of this trip led to a reawakening of my visual creative side.
-
I came back to Queen's for my Masters and sold a painting!
