Kim Wolfe is an artist at Worthmore Jewelers



Kim Wolfe and Worthmore Jewelers have teamed up to showcase Kim's artworks on Worthmore's walls for a win win situation for you! You get to see Kim's unique pieces while also seeing the wide selection of unique jewelery pieces that Worthmore offers.
Worthmore Jewelers has 2 locations in Georgia: 1 in Midtown Atlanta and 1 in Decatur, Georgia. In securing the Decatur location in 2007, Worthmore Jewelers moved into a place that was previously a store gallery full of folk art and neat trinkets. The space was already designed to be open with tall ceilings and lots of wall space to have things hanging up. As the owner, Harris Botnick, was prepping the store before opening for city approval and permits, people kept popping their head in asking what gallery he was opening. It was in this time that Harris decided to open up the wall space for local artist to display their art. Since then, they have hired an Art Director, Ashlei Thomas, to keep up the artist and exhibits. And they have parties at the opening of new shows revealing new artist and new works. You can always check out the latest happenings and art show schedules at: http://www.worthmorejewelers.com/ and http://www.worthmorefineart.blogspot.com/.





As an artist, Kim Wolfe, has been working on new pieces to reveal at Worthmore. The next show date is Feburary 28th for the Decatur Store location. For the first time, Kim will showcase anywhere from 10 - 12 pieces at one time. Previously, Kim has been showcasing fewer pieces at at time as she builds up her inventory. Along with the ever popular, Atlanta City Limits, Kim Wolfe will also have her latest modification of California Dreaming. Kim also hopes to have the newest set of the Convention Center piece.

In the meantime, between producing art for Worthmore Jewelers and pet portraits for some awesome pets and owners, Kim has started the beginning stages for the Decatur City Limits. As she is still just taking pictures, Kim has a target date of May 2009 for the Decatur Arts Festival which is a tight deadline. We'll just have to wait and see.

Sandy Springs Festival was a Sucess!

Being in the Sandy Springs Festival, Artist Market was a BIG success. Featuring the Atlanta City Limits Collage and Sandy Springs City Limits Collage, both pieces were well received and the artist Kim Wolfe of Absolutely Right Brain, sold out of these artworks for 10 pieces total.


"I couldn't do it without the support of my family and friends" says Kim Wolfe. "My mom and grandmother both drove up here to Georgia from Alabama to be with me on my first show. It meant the world to me to have them with me."


Kim Wolfe also took a few orders. 1 order was specifically for a black lab portriat. The piece is going to be titled "Balou" after the black lab's name.

Kathe Kingston of Noah's Art, shared a tent with Kim Wolfe and also did very well. Featuring unique and original one of a kind dragonflys, her wall display showcased each dragonfly nicely with the sun's beams through each one. Kathe is now working on broading her variety of stained glass works to include a mermaid, stained glass windows and individual one of a kind business card holders.













The only thing that did not go as planned was the action of someone taking pictures UNANNOUNCED of Kathe's dragonflys. Once they were confronted, they had the audacity to ask "I can't take a picture of your dragonfly?". Obviously they were told "NO". How rude. Doesn't everyone know not to take pictures of peoples' original artwork pieces, especially without asking? So this goes out to the blond female and dark headed male who acted dumb founded that they couldn't take pictures although they probably got a photo or 2 before they were confronted. Don't play dumb! Don't just walk up to someone's artwork and start taking pictures. Get a grip. You would want the same respect if it was your artwork on the wall.

And off from venting, stay tuned as Kimmie and Kathe plan their next art show! Thank you for supporting them!
