Kim Ciarleglio is a very mixed media artist, and is turning her hobby into a career! Having a very artistic family, a father who is a painter, her mother does woodcrafts and paints and her brother is a photographer, Kim has always been a crafty gal. She has a gift for recycling scrap pieces that she gets from tag sales and goodwill and turning them into fun and amazing pieces of jewelry, and art. Kim makes everything, from earrings and hair clips, to decorative record album covers, to wood paintings, and paintings with REAL butterflies! While she sticks to her unique style, everything is one of a kind! As a self proclaimed "Hoarder" she is constantly envisioning what she can make out of her plethora of stuff stating, "Why throw away something thats ugly when you can make it in to something pretty!"
Yup! those are real butterflies, she sprayed them with a finishing spray to give them a glossy look and to keep them looking beautiful longer.
....A MULTITUDE of Hair clips!
And some of the coolest, unique jewelry you could ever want!
Her talents don't stop there, and her collection is ever growing! This wont be the last you hear of her, she's working on getting a studio/gallery space in New Haven soon! She has also, and will continue to vend in New Haven at all kinds of art shows, and is looking forward to New Haven's
