Red Dirt Farm and Studio

A Joyful Creative Life

Welcome to Red Dirt Farm and Studio

*Quick note from Kim*  December 4, 2025 Regrettably I will be canceling my scheduled show at the Holiday Bazzar at the Charlottesville Waldorf School.  Please know how disappointed I am to do this.  I am unexpectedly having surgery on the 4th.  Sending everyone out there the best of wishes for a wonderful holiday season.  Peace, Kim

 

Kim is a self taught artist and classifies her art as “let’s don’t put a label on it.”  She works with mixed media, acrylic, collage, water color and soft pastels.

Kim is also a skilled glass and metal artist.  She often enjoys combining these skills with her painting.

Her passion for repurposing materials is evident in her use of unusual substrates as backgrounds for her work.

Kim grew up on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay which formed her life long love of the sea and all things coastal. The daughter of a farm boy turned forester, also shaped her love for all creatures and a great respect for nature and conservation.  These are the influences you will find in her work that she calls from mountain to sea.

Kim is often found working outside her home studio in Virginia where chickens wonder freely, or at the kitchen table surrounded by her cats, Gus and Gator.

When Kim is in residence in South West Florida, she also enjoys painting outside by the water.

She is grateful that she has had the opportunity to display and sell her art at local shops, galleries, markets as well as travel the East Coast and sell her work.

The studio in Virginia is open to the public by appointment and special events.  Her work is also available for purchase through her Etsy Shop.
