KIM SHAKLEE IN THE SHALLOWS

I am an avid birdwatcher, and love depicting different species in their natural habitats. In the stillness of late afternoon this ibis is enjoying a bit of paradise while contemplating his upcoming meal before sunset.

KIM SHAKLEE • WAOW Master • CO • www.kimshaklee.com I have been a full-time sculptor for 32 years, dedicating my career to depicting wildlife and marine subjects by transforming static metal into effortless motion. Capturing fluidity is of the utmost importance in my work. My desire is not to merely replicate an animal, but to bring life to my subjects by emphasizing beautiful curves into the focal point in of my sculptures. I want people to tactilely and visually experience my creative process.
