SPENCER KIMBLE
Spencer Kimble is a mixed media artist based in Burlington, VT. He has studied ceramics in conjunction with printmaking from a young age. As the child of a landscape painter, Laura J. Eden, his exposure to the process of creating art in relation to the natural world began early. Often, his inspiration comes from time spent fishing, birding, and working as a botanist. He has studied at Honey Hill Pottery, Iskra Print Collective, University of Vermont Pottery CO-OP, and Burlington City Arts. This is Spencer's second year being involved with NISDA as an educator and a studio member.
