Cover Art
Kim Hambric:
I am a self-taught artist living in State College, Pennsylvania.
Quilting has been part of my life for the past 12 years. My love of
color and texture has prompted me to work with several types of
media: paint, paper and fabric. While I love experimenting and
learning from other media, I always return to fabric. My newest work
combines commercial and hand-dyed and painted fabric that I imprint
using hand-carved stamps. I also embellish many pieces with beading
and embroidery. I view each piece I create as a story or poem,
rather than a picture. e-mail:
