Artist Statement

I am immersed in a study of the natural world. I aim to gain greater artistic skill and knowledge about our earth with each work. I am interested in what the work will reveal through sustained practice. The Earth and I know each other. She most likely knows me much better than I do myself. I believe that our planet has things she wants to teach me. I believe I am somehow important to her. I believe that I have responsibilities in my relationship with our Earth.

Love the Earth.

Description of the Work

Each work is a compilation of forest animals with Woodlands Native patterning and watercolor mark-making. It holds a dynamic tension of realism and abstract art concepts. 

Education

At Kayeri Akweks Art, we specialize in Woodlands Native fine art giclee prints about the beauty of nature. Our mission is to bring the essence of forest animals and plants interlaced with Native design through stunning, high-quality artwork.

The artwork encourages each of us to look closer, relishing our natural world, and refreshing our inner peace just like an actual walk in the woods.

Kayeri and her longtime partner, Mike McCanna operate the online fine art giclee print business together.
