Hi I’m Keri!

I’m a Believer of Dreams and Painter of Hope.  

I’ve tended to have my head in the clouds, believing things that people tried to talk me out of.  The first being the belief that I would one day have a sister.  Despite all the well-meaning words to try to protect me from disappointment, I did indeed get a sister. 

Over the years, I saw other dreams come true, but slowly learned to be afraid to hope and my dreams were replace with deep fears.

I’ve loved art in many forms ever since I was very small.  But as soon as childhood was over, I thought art was over too.  

Years later, a mother of 3 girls and always keeping art supplies in reach, I realized that the artist in me was still there and needed out.  I struggled to find my way and teach myself watercolor, but I knew I had to keep going.  

A season of suffering swept through and though it was hard to keep painting, God gave me a message of hope that fueled my work.  I didn’t paint to understand.  I painted to express what I was receiving.  Hope was budding alongside my painting skill.  

There was a time that sweet memories were painful.  They gave me feelings of failure, loss, and “if-only.”  But God has changed that for me and I believe He can change that for anyone.  He is with us now and was with us then.  He can restore our memories to joy and give us hope for the future as well.  

Since I officially decided to call myself an artist and share my work with the world, I have seen many more dreams come true as I have learned that God is the Giver of dreams and we are privileged to ask Him to make them real.   

My subject matter as of late has become heavily focused on figures which I thought I would never paint.  I love to paint candid moments that bring feelings of love, joy, peace, and hope to our hearts. 

This is the perspective I paint from and I hope it blesses you!
