"I spent a good deal of time in the Lake Country of England, studying Beatrix Potter. She was a remarkable woman, an artist and writer of course, but also a scientist and conservationist. That range of interests and commitment drew me to discover more about her life and her work. And the more I learned the more enchanted I became. " Jim Shore. Material: Stone Resin Dimensions: 14.5cm H x 7cm W x 5.7cm L Presentation: Branded giftbox Artist: Jim Shore Jim Shore  grew up in rural South Carolina, the son of artistic parents who instilled a love of the traditional imagery of American folk art. His grandmother was a master quilter who taught him an appreciation for the patience and skill required to bring intricate designs to life. Jim drew inspiration from these roots. ââThereâs an innocence, a purity in the designs found in early American art, particularly in quilts. These were masterpieces designed by artists driven to create. I collect quilts dating back over 150 years and when I look at the level of skill and creativity I am constantly amazed. Itâs high art from everyday, often humble surroundings.ââ Initially Jim pursued his art where and when he could. He studied engineering and received a degree in business, not art. He supported his young family as an engineer, honing his skills as a sculptor and painter in his spare time.
