Interview with new Resident Artist Kim Anderson

AS: What is your medium of choice?
KA: Primarily, I am a fiber artist and love working in textiles overall.

AS: How did you get started?
KA: We raise sheep and have bred them for their wool, so in effect I produce my own medium!

AS: What are some of your greatest inspirations?
KA: I get my inspiration from a variety of things, but mostly nature, fantasy, and whimsy. However I do enjoy making things that are fun and functional like felted soaps and pet pods.

AS: Do you have a favorite piece of work that you have done?
KA: Tie! Betty the Yeti was the most fun piece because of the creative aspect, but my squirrel is another favorite due to the technical aspects that I learned and accomplished.
