BIOGRAPHY

I've had dual citizenship between real life and my inner world from a very early age, and I've tried to express this unseen world through art from the time I could hold my Mom's lipstick. I survived early childhood instruction and continued art classes up until High School graduation. Like everyone, I was taught the importance of coloring inside the lines, however, it wasn't until I learned to value the lines themselves, that I really began to feel at home in both my worlds. I'm a freelance self-employed Artist / Designer / Illustrator. The majority of my studio time is spent on small scale, mixed media illustrations like the ones featured in my first published children's book (Westie The Dog). Affectionately referred to as "Mini Kini's", these miniature artworks are virtual snapshots of my inner world; providing glimpses of the world through my eyes. Check out my most recent available art in my NO-Reserve Silent Auctions at KiniArt.com! KiniArt originals are collected throughout the US, Canada, & more than 10 other countries. I welcome freelance offers & custom requests for animal business logos, & custom paintings, & licensing inquiries.
