New Art

Hidden Heart
The drawing was inspired by the red patch on the the Sandhill Crane's head.
The featherless red patch is a
familiar identifying feature, but not many are aware of its shape.
The patch curves up in the back to form an inverted V.
When the crane tips its head down, the shape suggests a heart.

Whoopers on the Wing Detail
The black feathers of the Whooping Crane's wings are not visible when the bird's wings are tucked in.
When it spreads its wings to fly, the black is a striking contrast to the bird's white plumage.
The unmistakeable black and white wings distinguishes it from Sandhill Cranes and Egrets when it flies overhead.

Now available for viewing on youtube, Kim's webinar presents the journey that led her from the Chicago suburbs to the rolling hills of Sauk County, Wisconsin.
In the webinar, Kim discusses the progression of her artwork with a focus on the influences and stories behind selected crane drawings.
She also talks through the process of creating a drawing of a blue crane, and the extensive research that led her down interesting paths along the way.

Pediatric Atrium Lobby
Kim was thrilled to be awarded a commission by the famous Mayo Clinic for 34 of her life-sized bird sculptures.
The birds, all native Minnesota woodland species, are flying in Mayo's new Pediatric Atrium Lobby.
We will post a feature in the future documenting the extensive project.

UW Hospital Art
UW American Family Children's Hospital Project
Art coordinator for the UW Hospitals, Amanda Kron, had a vision for the new floor of the children's hospital.
To support the theme, "Skies Over Wisconsin, Amanda challenged Kim to design and execute hanging sculptures for installation in the elevator hallway.
Working with many safety restrictions, the end result was three cloud formations with birds on each side to welcome visitors as they step off the elevators.
