On Photography
"I have been taking photographs for many years. I remember riding down the road on my bike, when I was younger, snapping pictures at whatever was interesting, in color and/or black&white. People ask me why I have never "focused in" on taking photos of people as my subjects more! Well, I cannot say I never find people interesting...but living in a rural country area, sometimes I would find myself taking photos of everything from old houses, that had been abandoned, to flowers, to wildlife. Sometimes a close up of a beer can crumpled on the road, was also interesting. Subjects are everywhere!" -KIMBERLY ROWETT

Favorite Art Materials
From time to time people ask me about the kinds of paints I buy, what medias I like to use,etc. However, I use whatever is good quality, and accessible. Depending on the store I am visiting, I look at their selections, and note the prices offered. Of course, if they happen to have the kinds of paints I need on sale, I purchase those. I will occasionally try a new brand of paints, pastels,etc., out to see how it performs. Sometimes it has been well worth it, other times not. If you also produce art, as a hobby or profession, my advice is to experiment with what works for you, sometimes it really does lead you to a new understanding of what works best!

I have a new shop on ETSY!
The Kim Rowlett ART CAFE is not open on Etsy! It is a site that fills a need for "art lite"...more substantial art is on my Yessy site!
