Kerrie has loved drawing and painting since early childhood, working mainly in oils and acrylic. A keen gardener and lover of nature she became interested in Botanic Art when she met Anita Barley and saw her work. Since 1999 she has studied with Anita. She has also participated in workshops with Agathe Ravet-Haevermans, John Pastoriza-Pinol, Susannah Blaxill and Kate Nolan. Her preferred mediums are currently watercolour or graphite and she has recently started exploring watercolour on vellum. Kerrie lives on a property near Hanging Rock in central Victoria where the local flora and fauna provide a wealth of inspiration and subject matter.
