Kimi Dee

Kim Dalrymple (Kimi Dee) grew up in the Ottawa area and has been a full time artist/teacher since 2009. Formally trained as a Graphic Designer Kimi’s journey started in high tech/management but she knew her true calling was something creative, so after her kids were grown she went back to college and got her degree and has never looked back. Loving all things creative from Watercolour, mixed media, collage and everything in between, she decided one way to channel her creativity was to help others on their creative journey and believes that art is like yoga, it meets you where you’re at and everyone is creative. You can find her artwork displayed in private collections and in the City of Ottawa’s archives.
