About her Art
My Artistic Vision
My work does not reference any particular form, but rather, features more of an eclectic blend of sorts. I frequently experiment with my own inventive processes, while often creating pieces using whatever happens to inspire me at the time, transcending a notion into a unique piece of work.
My Bio Hi,
I’m Kimberly McGuiness; I’m a self-taught artist who works in a variety of mixed media, digital art, and some illustration with my thoughts being organic in nature. I have always been a creative spirit my whole life, but, my true love has been my art since I was in elementary school.
My artwork received a Certificate of Achievement from the Florida Winter Park Arts Festival in both 1976 and 1977.
I went through the grades exploring art and developing my creativity through my high school graduation.
My Current Work My creations are influenced by contemplative moments in my mind, vibrant color and bold lines, and where vision and energy undergo a metamorphosis.
Patterns and textures from nature, cultures around the world, inspiration from others, and my own imagination are my greatest influences.
While peacocks and the circus theme show up in my pieces often, some of my grooviest inspirations come from flowers.
I’m profoundly intrigued and amazed at the beauty which can come from the tiniest of seeds, it’s just amazing. The beautiful texture and color all make for a fabulous kick starter for some of my more whimsy pieces.
I’m always pushing myself to try unique and usually different things, one to see if I like the process and if so how can I fold it into my style of work.
Pens, ink, paper, colored pencils, acrylic, joint compound, molding paste, wood, canvas panels, vintage music, watercolor, recycled materials, and the computer are among some of my favorite tools in giving my creations life.
If I had to pick only 2 materials to use it would be watercolor an
