About

K. D. Coleman

K. D. Coleman is an artist with an appreciation for a variety of art forms. After 9 years exploring her passion for the art of blacksmithing/bladesmithing, her path led her to begin creating hand carved sheaths and pieces to compliment blades and the lifestyle of those who forge and collect them. She continues to push herself into exploring new and more complicated designs, with the purpose of her pieces to showcase and compliment their subjects, while celebrating and emphasizing the natural organic beauty of the leather itself. She has a passion for functional art and consistently seeks to create beautiful, artistic items that will serve their purpose for decades to come.

K.D. enjoys teaching this art form at various schools and locations including: Peters Valley School of Craft, Guilford Art Center, and Dragon’s Breath Forge.
