Thank you for stopping by and for viewing my work. I am a mother of three wonderful stepchildren, a wife to a loving and supportive husband, and I also work full time. I have no formal training in art, but from a young age wanted to be an artist. The problem was I wasn't any good at drawing or painting. I couldn’t translate from my brain to the paper/canvas what I saw.  I did have other talents, singing is a passion of mine, I sing in the shower and car every day. (grins) I also dabble with stain glasswork, scrapbook, stamping, embroidery, needlepoint and the list goes on.
December 2006 I found Daz Studios and for the first time was able to at least get some of the images I saw in my head out. But it wasn't as easy as it seemed. Nothing good ever is. I started posting images on Renderosity and met some wonderful people who invited me to join a group of people who all used Daz Studios and so my learning increased. We now have a wonderful forum called Daz Artist Guild dedicated to helping people who want to improve their skills using Daz Studios.ÂÂ
Our motto: Dream~Creativity~Render~Reality
So if you get the chance please stop by and say hello! Until then, as a friends says...

Wonderful scene and Christmas gift! A Very Merry and safe Christmas to you and yours Kim. And I know that feeling of butterflies when you post your first image and felt the same way. And you are correct, there are some really wonderful people on Rendo. Thank you for your support. :o)

Beautiful image Kim, you are too hard on yourself. You do amazing work.

I think most of us novices felt the same - my first post didn't get noticed much at all however that - nor the lack of talent has stopped me. You, my dear, however are a different story. Please don't ever think that your not talented! This image is just one example, there are many others in my favorites and I look forward to adding many more! I hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas!

I am not the best artist, or even very good technically. You've made the art charts, won challenges, and most recently had images selected for the DAZ Galleries. Those are things all the "not very good artists" do on a regular basis. Remind me to share my ego with you! Kim, you are a fantastic artist and a true friend. It's funny for me remembering our first contact, I just knew you'd take the artistic suggestions wrong but much to my surprise you embraced the advice I offered. Stop selling yourself short, it's makes me and the Dutchman look bad. ;)
