Biography from AskART:
The following, submitted May 2005, is from the artist.

Kim Shaklee is a native of Denver, Colorado. She spent the summers and holidays of her youth at her family's summer home located in Rocky Mountain National Park, just outside of Estes Park, Colorado. It was there that Kim developed a deep appreciation for the natural world, and an intense love for wildlife. Combining her life experiences, knowledge, strong artistic abilities, and love for creatures of land and sea, Kim has become a wildlife sculptor.

"I have spent the majority of my lifetime studying animals in their natural habitat.
I place a great deal of emphasis on an animal's personality. My interpretation and perception of these personalities is a common thread in all of my work. My desire is not to merely replicate the animal, but make its essence the central focal point of my sculpture. I truly love these creatures, and I want anyone who views my work to be able to appreciate the individuality of each animal."

Shaklee has received awards including the Gold Medal of Honor from Allied Artists of America in New York; Award of Excellence & Marine Environmental Wildlife Award(s) from Mystic Seaport Museum, CT; Paul Manship Memorial Award; the Anna Hyatt Huntington Bronze Medal, four Publisher's Awards, and numerous Best of Show's.

Her work has been the subject of several editorial features in well-known publications, including Art of the West, Wildlife Art, Sporting Classics, InformArt, and American Artist.

Shaklee's works are included the permanent collections of Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, D.C.; the Oklahoma City Zoological Gardens; Oklahoma City; OK and Benson Park Sculpture Garden, Loveland, CO.
