American artist Kharon Clark was born in 1960 and is married with two children. Kharon's favourite and unusual mediums are Paint and Thread, as she told us...

“I would sit in my room as a young teen, grounded of course in a time before TVs in kids' bedrooms. What to do...hum...draw, anything and everything.

Much later, as in 35 years or so, I discovered paint. I have no formal training and I cannot always get the feel of the picture out on the canvas with just paint. I love to sew but straight lines are not for me. So to enhance the image I thread paint the piece - layering thread over the paint then adding dimension by laying batting under the piece which gives it depth and texture.

I usually reserve the thrill of my work for the weekends as I have a week day job.”
