Kim Anderson is an amazing painter, illustrator and author from Brighton, England. She creates magical and joyful art that provides a delightful visual experience. Her mantra is trust the process in art and in life. She is the talented designer of the beautiful butterfly cover and the magical artwork throughout Sparkle & Shine. Since graduating in Textile and Surface design, Kim has created an extensive portfolio of artwork for a variety of greetings card publishers in the UK, Europe and the United States. Based in her home town of Brighton, where her work is exhibited in local art galleries, Kim has built up a reputation which extends well beyond this inspirational and creative seaside resort. Kim's greetings card ranges have been in the prestigious finals of the Henries Awards, the highest accolade for design talent within the UK card industry. She is recognized for her use of paint, pen, ink, gold leaf and glitter which have contributed to some beautiful ranges. Her commercial success has naturally followed on from her inspirational artwork and led to several collaborations with high profile companies. Kim gets inspiration from the colors and textures in everyday life. This might include vintage objects, contemporary art, interior design or simply creative images from magazines. There are artists that have also inspired Kim including Picasso, Elizabeth Blackadder and The Bloomsbury Group. Sometimes just walking around an art gallery can provide the spark which is enough to start the creative process. See less
