This mixture allows me to explore both areas. 

The first image is called "Garden Patch" #1, one of a series of four showing a narrative of the growth of a plant to the form of a textile. It is made of clothes line cording, the series is on my website in the gallery called "Concepts and Other Musings."

The second image is a sculptural form, made from children's stuffed animals taken apart and restitched together to form what I have titled as "Soft Picasso" because of the eyes that look at you from different points on the wall sculpture. There are more images of this artwork on the same gallery on my website called "Concepts and Other Musings" This piece was to use up used stuffed animals and give them a new purpose, instead of the landfill. I have done other wall works and a few sculptures that also take care of any scraps from my studio or home. My Instagram page is https://www.instagram.com/wilkiekimd/

Even when I just paint I include some forms of and marks from sewing. Kim Wilkie
