CHG Directors Statement:  Kerri Kerley – “Insights to the Soul”

Kerri’s paintings capture the indigenous figure with an empathy and insight that is both profound and unique; expressing their personality with her own stylised rendition.  She does not render a portrait but rather, captures the esoteric spirit of her subject.

It is obvious that as an artist, she connects with her intuition and I believe, is almost guided to whom she chooses to observe and study for her next piece.  She has a sincere empathy, or connection with the personalities in her portraits, thereby her art gives insight to each of these personalities.
