Inspire by Kim

Hi, I’m Kim, author, illustrator and promoter.

I hope to counter negativity by expressing joy for life, vibrancy and fun through my work.

I’m based in Sheffield, UK.

I love to engage audiences on the themes of sport, enjoyment of life, travel, and the environment. I create in a range of media including paint, paper, fabric and digital.

SHOP

Head to my shop for art prints, greeting cards, fabrics, t-shirts and Ski A to Z books.

Ski A to Z – An Illustrated Introduction to Skiing is packed with over 100 illustrations and snowsports info, gems of advice and my top ski tips. Published by Meyer & Meyer Sport (UK) Ltd.

LICENSING AND COMMISSIONED ART

To media buyers I offer existing work for license and create new bespoke illustrations for advertising, editorial and positive change campaigns. By combining creative illustration and public relations skills I can provide a fresh approach to promoting products and services.

I have developed a range of ski and snowsports fabric designs which are available for licensing for clothing, products and accessories. I also have fabric designs available to order to be printed on demand by Spoonflower.

MY STORY

I have managed the press offices for three of the UK’s leading travel companies. Encouraging people to explore new places and experience fresh perspectives through travel features, leading press trips, hosting travel TV crews and creative PR campaigns to launch new airlines, flight routes, airports, cruise itineraries and technology.

Love of the natural world led me to fuel a movement in the travel industry to reduce environmental impact and to operate sustainable, socially responsible practices.

Since suffering acute knee injury, and ACL reconstruction surgery, I have focussed increasingly on visual forms of communication, studying and explored art, design and illustration. Sport, travel and the environment are key themes of my work.

I’m delighted to be creating art and illustrations which demonstrate emotion and encourage enjoyment. I’m constantly evolving my work so you might like to follow my Instagram, Facebook and YouTube channels to see my creative process and ongoing projects.
