In the second part of our conversation, Kimberley Kay and I discuss about the Japanese Watercolours she uses to create her paintings and where she got the inspiration for the new Fall Line Magazine T-Shirt and the new projects she has coming up next.

Having studied English Literature and then illustration, Kimberley has combined many of her passions such as skiing & snowsports with writing and painting to create this wonderful book - Ski A to Z: An Illustrated Guide to Skiing.

She has always had a keen eye for art and design and having created works for the likes of Fall-Line Magazine and ski legend Dan Eagan to name a few!
