About


W E L C O M E ! 

 My name is Kim Henkel, and I love to create, teach 
and share my adventures along the way.
  
The hours that pass by with glue on my fingertips, 
and paint filled brushes close at hand are treasured hours.  
But creating is not always easy.  
It is often a challenging puzzle that at times seems unsolvable -  
but oh what joy and relief there is 
when the colours and textures, and words and emotions
 tumble out just right layering themselves perfectly 
onto the canvas, or jewelry, or handmade book.
   







Oh yah..... I also love to go hiking and spend time in nature!

    1. I will be teaching an in person journal making class on April 1&2 in Whitehorse, Yukon. Not sure where you are commenting from. I am hoping to start creating on line classes as well, but my creative time is limited. I will continue to work towards this dream! Thanks for your comment

  2. Found you today through Roxanne’s book. I come from the very north of Sweden and do feel related both in your nature and your art. Thanks for inspiring me in my art.

    1. Unfortunately - it can't hold water..... but it can hold many other things - mine are often filled with rocks and leaves and flowers and other treasures I find in nature.

  4. Hello I'm writing from Italy and I just found your beautiful paper mache bowls. I'd like to know if you have any online class or ebook of yours where you reveal more on paper mache! Thanks, Alessandra
