GWENDOLYN KERN
- Bio & Statement -
Gwendolyn Kern is a representational artist residing in Billings, MT. She is inspired by the Western landscape, its history, and iconic characteristics.
Always drawing as a kid, her adolescent academics revolved around art. Thanks to her high school electives, and one tenth grade art teacher, her introduction to oil painting began early on. Through books, forums, and experimentation, she continued to understand the medium by studying the techniques of those that came before her. While Gwendolyn’s college career concentrated on graphic design, she never abandoned her partiality for traditional methods.
Now, using classical means, Gwendolyn combines her background in design and love of color with her affection for fine art to create, embrace and share the American West as she sees it.
