"As a kid, I remember my dad saying that the only way for women to financially make it was to become a secretary," says 30-year- financially-independent-artist, Kim Guthrie. "My dad's words motivated me to prove him wrong."
As many artists have to find motivation to start a project, Kim's motivation stems partly from her father's comment, partly from giving herself new themes and mediums, partly from creating deadlines, and partly from just feeling happiest when she's close to her creator and her true self. In short, she's an artist with very honest business practices who resides in an unconventional downtown McKinney Gallery close to the Heard-Craig Center for the Arts (#SchonEverywhere) and close to the McKinney Visitor's Bureau (#McKinneyTX)

Guthrie's artist motto is: "Whimsical Art for the Young At Heart". She says that it's the thread that runs through her multiple styles, whether realism or impressionism. Mainly a painter, she uses bright colors and an array of palette knives to move the buttery paint in organic strokes. Her love of texture spills over to the 3D sculptures and paintings she creates using vintage finds and paper mache.

In today’s digital world, Cyber Security Importance cannot be overstated. As technology advances, so do the threats, making it essential for individuals and organizations to prioritize strong security measures. From protecting sensitive data to preventing financial losses, cybersecurity plays a critical role in maintaining digital trust. Raising awareness about the Cyber Security Importance is key to building a safer online environment for everyone.
Reading about Kim Guthrie’s journey really resonated with me. Like her, I was once told to stick to a conventional career path, but I found my own way through creativity and persistence. Pursuing my passion, whether in art or other fields, often meant setting personal goals and deadlines to stay motivated. It’s inspiring to see someone turn early doubts into fuel for success. On a lighter note, when I need a quick mental break, I enjoy playing the Slope Game - a fun way to refresh and recharge.
