Hi, guys! It's almost 2009--wow! What a great year! Bringing in the New Year celebration is a wonderful occassion to review the past year's accomplishments--(a great motivator for new inovations!) My website was overhauled in December of this past year with new features and pages. Paypal is now an option for new portraits and paintings to add to ease in purchasing. Feedback has been most helpful in reconstructing the site, (thank you!) Feel free to check out the new look at www.icansketchu.com. I've been working on some new landscape images which I hope to have uploaded soon. There are always new portraits being created, and with permission from the subject, I will feature a few of these here as well. Hope your new year starts off great! Cheers! -Kerra

Hi, guys! After a whirl-wind move--we have landed in Whispering Pines, North Carolina. I am trying to wrap up my students' last few classes and getting settled in to this beautiful new area, (okay, fine--so the area I haven't seen so much of...just the insides of boxes...). We're all very anxious for my guy to come back from overseas and get acquainted with our new home. My main studio desk doesn't fit in it's new area...so some serious elbow-grease is needed to get that thing in there. I found my supplies and paper and can't WAIT for things to calm down so I can get some time for sketching that beautiful lake outside. We just had an amazing little storm come through--and the overload of water is captured over the bulkhead in one of my recent uploads called, "Perfect". After all that rain and concern over damage, this scene emerged afterward. Just beautiful. Hope everyone is doing great! Cheers! -Kerra

I am currently working with Picasso Home Art School as an art teacher. How wonderful it is to be teaching again! All of their teachers are certified and background checked--making not only the comfort of learning in your own home fantastic, but the peace of mind that you'll be receiving professional instruction. I teach from the methods taught in Learning to Draw On The Right Hand Side of the Brain. This approach makes learning to draw and 'see' simplistic and easily allows anyone to draw, well, anything. Feel free to check out the school's web page at Picassohomeartschool.com. I am currently teaching in the Fayetteville and surrounding areas. I look forward to hearing from you! -Kerra

ABC's Extreme Makeover has been picked up on the 'Style' channel. It was quite a surprise to see the show airing several times the past few weeks for sure! It was wonderful to see the faces of all my family and friends again. You guys are the best! :) -Kerra

The event on Ft. Bragg was a huge success! Thank you to all who came and participated in the events--it wouldn't have been the same without you. It was truly an honor to be a part of the very first event in honor of Women's History Month on Ft. Bragg. The exhibit was organized in accordance with George. W. Bush's proclamation that March 2008 would be known as Women's History Month. He called upon all our citizens to "observe this month with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities that honor the history, accomplishments and contributions of American women". After all, without the huge impact of the role women play in our society, our country would not be the free and independent nation that it is today. Still smiling with pride- Kerra

I was recently asked to take part in a Women's History Month celebration by showcasing some of my art at the Officer's Club at Fort Bragg. The show is entitled: Women's Vision: A Glimpse Through Her Eyes, March 25th, 2008 from 10:00am -3:00 pm. As a former enlisted member of our Armed Services, as a woman and an artist, I consider it an honor to be a part of this exciting day! I hope everyone local will have a chance to attend and meet the other artists and people representing groups like the North Carolina Museum of Art and the Fayetteville Museum of Art. I hope to see you there! Cheers! -Kerra
