Kimmy Cantrell Art Sculpture Gallery
Kimmy Cantrell, "Teacher", sold. In 1991 “I just decided one day that it was time to reconnect with the clay so I picked some up and sculpted a vase.“ Kimmy’s vases evolved into bowls, and bowls, faces. And, well, he hasn't stopped creating since; developing fresh variations on three recurring themes: faces, still life's, and the female anatomy.
