Kim Chavez
Kim creates her bronze sculptures through a process of research, discovery and her own connection with each subject. Her style is simplistic and stylized. Each subject projects movement while retaining simple lines.
Kim begins by spending days and sometime months creating an image in clay. Composing a sculpture is exciting and challenging. Creating her vision in clay takes time and patience.

She cast small limited editions at a foundry that accepts only a handful of artists. This foundry prefers to remain small, and gives special attention to the art work. The patinas are rich tones from nature that resemble polished stone.
Her inspiration comes through a love for wildlife, nature and sensitivity to the environment. She strongly believes in respecting the environment, preserving habitat, and keeping wild places wild for the future generations.
