Siscily Ketcher

"I can't remember a time when I was not "doing" art. My father was a commercial artist who gave me unlimited materials and (fortunately) very little instruction. As an adult, I simply found folk art appealing and during the years when I was exploring photography, I felt that I actually saw real life in terms of folk art; my photo compositions attempted to capture that. When I began painting, I was living in Montana and became intrigued by the art of Grandma Moses. After a winter trip to the Cayman Islands, I really found my joy and began constructing very colorful shadow boxes with Caribbean themes. A gallery in Grand Cayman (Pure Art) began selling my work. Through that gallery, I also sold pen and ink drawings of buildings, painted sneakers, and finally paintings. ... and now I primarily do only the paintings.

The reason my paintings are relatively small is I am a bit of a vagabond and at times I live in a travel trailer or a sail boat. Keeping my paintings small allows me to continue to do my work while traveling. Sometimes I set up a studio in a tent. I can't imagine NOT doing art. If asked to make a statement about my paintings, I would say: they are a celebration of everyday life."

The paintings are done on heavy-bond watercolor paper (outside dimension 15x11; actual image size 13x9) using acrylic paint and black ink. $150.00 ea.
