I am a self taught Mixed Media
artist who lives in Virginia with my wonderful Art Husband and our furry family
of 5. With a very traditional artistic
mother we were blessed to be exposed to many different artists in our visits to
fine art museums across the Country.
Although my college days led me to a business degree it was my love of
art that found me taking fine art and photography classes over several
semesters. When I was introduced to
Mixed Media, approximately 8 years ago, my first love was the use of vintage
images because they so reminded me of some of my favorite museum works.
Ann Kristen Krier is a self-taught, mixed media
artist who began creative pursuits in early public school, supplimenting
formal learning with art workshops at the University of
Vermont. Later, inspired by the talents of grandmothers and aunties, who
willingly shared their "art stuff" from fibers to water
colors, she began to combine materials into new creative techniques for
mixed media. Her creative life includes a commitment to sharing
ideas through books, articles, workshops and her artist's statement:
"The artist's journey should never stop, but rather pause temporarily
to share with all the world, what she has been fortunate to discover."
Born in upstate New York, Ann and her husband Jim currently live in the
piedmont region of North Carolina with three of four "children" - lax
man, soccer girl and "Murphy" the eighty pound lap dog.
Hi everyone! I
am so excited for this opportunity with USArtQuest! I have been a
scrapper for over 18 years now. Over the last few years I have added in
painting, quilting and started back drawing again after a 20 year
hiatus. Art...in all forms...is what I love most and it makes me so
happy to lock myself away in my craft room and just make items all day
long. Very theraputic! I love looking around and grabbing ideas from
signs, pictures and odd ball items. I am a mother of 2....they are 21
and 18. My youngest will be graduating next year. I am also a new
grandmother to a wonderfully sweet 10 month old...Danie. She is the
light of my life. I am married...to the sweetest guy who doesn't mind my
crafty addiciton..for 13 years. If it envolves paint, glue, paper...I'm
in :)

Hello, my name is Kristi Parker Van Doren and I live in Missouri, the Show Me State!
I live with my husband of 23years and our 2 children. I have been
involved with paper crafting for over thirty five years. I was
introduced to stamping at the age of 12 and over the years, I have
taught many classes at the local stamping and scrapbooking stores. I
have also worked the retail side and am a previous store owner. I love
to create a large spectrum of projects with a broad range of styles. I
have been blessed to attend CHA and demo for several companies. My style
varies depending on the materials I have on hand and what is
called for on any given project. I have worked with some wonderful
companies and have been published in a variety of magazines. I love
creating cards, altered arts, home decor, and scrapbooking. In my spare
time I also enjoy spending time with family and friends, jewelry making
and recently started woodworking! I also love to combine different
companies together to create unique and fun projects. I am getting ready
to start my second term with Dreamweaver Stencils January of 2012. I just try to enjoy life's moments.
Wow, what an amazing team..
