Allow me to introduce Kim Holowatiuk, a passionate individual residing on a serene acreage near Calgary, Alberta. Alongside her husband Bill, Kim shares her haven with a delightful mix of furry companions, including the lively Australian Shepherd, Blue, the endearing fainting goat, Manny, and two charming donkeys named Jose and Ten X. Completing the family are the barn cats, Cathy and Schmitty.

However, it is through the art of mandala creation that Kim truly finds solace. This captivating form of expression not only satisfies her creative side but also serves as a source of relaxation and meditation. With every brush stroke and dot, Kim immerses herself in the calming and meditative process, infusing her art with a sense of tranquility. Additionally, there is an intimate touch of her heart woven into each and every item she creates. From the delicate mandala designs to the carefully selected materials, Kim's creations embody a piece of her soul, ensuring that each item holds a unique essence that resonates with those who cherish them.

Kim is a polycystic kidney disease (PKD) patient & brain aneurysm survivor and advocate for both.
