Kim Curtis
Immediately after leaving Falmouth, she went straight into designing Bunnykins figures for Royal Doulton, the most successful collection being the 'Jazz Band'. As well as doing this, she ran a successful furniture painting business with her partner, now husband, Peter and accepted commissions for portraits and personalised paintings for children. This rapidly developed into commissions for a variety of projects including web sites, artwork for companies such as logos and cartoons for publicity literature and posters for organisations, groups and theatre companies. When not working on these projects, Kim has produced a number of large canvases and murals pushing her drawing skills forward and allowing her to experiment with different media. A vast majority of her commissions have been in the field of Children's illustration, designing greeting cards, producing artwork for children's projects and web graphics aimed at children. But her focus is now on finding a wider range of subject matter that is executed mainly in oil or pen and ink.
