The Sister Story
M
Most families would be lucky to have one artist in the family…let alone a
successful sister duo which is taking on the art world and spreading love and
empowerment through their creative process.
Meet sisters Kim Schuessler (pictured top left) and Christy Kinard (pictured top right).
Kim, who studied art at the University of Georgia, says, “Like any artist, my
goal was to paint and sell my paintings. However, I realized that it was going
to take time and a plan. I worked at a gallery, went back to school for an art edu-
cation certificate, and landed a coveted job as an art teacher in Atlanta. I would
not trade that experience for anything. Teaching taught me how to communicate,
how to manage time, and how to always be prepared.”
