Judi Geer Kellas - Fine Artist
Member Since: 03/18/2007
Judi Geer Kellas has been making 'pictures' for forty-plus years. Living in Lawrence, Kansas since 1968, Kansas has inspired her art work from the 'Women in Aviation' Series to the recent 'Fall Wild Flower' Series.
Judi creates paintings on paper and canvas, silverpoint and graphite drawings, collages and serigraphs of varied subject matter. She has produced several ongoing series:
'Waterflowers': paintings mainly of lotus and water lilies
'The Family Album': paintings and drawings documenting the everyday events and people that enrich our lives
'Dauphin Island': paintings, drawings and prints inspired by this Gulf of Mexico island
'Dunes': paintings, drawings and prints of sand dunes
'Every Child a Loved Child': silver point and graphite drawings of the relationship between children and adults.
'Sunsets': paintings with both visual and emotional sunset meanings.
'Celebration of Flight: Women in Aviation'- a creative passion that began in 1996 joining the community of Atchison in celebration of the 100th birthday of Amelia Earhart. She began using Kansas' and women's history to encourage appreciation, respect and recognition for the women in aviation, from 1910 to the present.
The birthplace of Amelia Earhart in Atchison, KS and the historical birthplace of modern aviation in Wichita, inspired her to begin creating an ongoing series which she calls 'Celebration of Flight: Women in Aviation.'
Sixty paintings, drawings and original prints to date now honor thirty-eight women in aviation. This series embodies her mission to preserve the birth and living heritage of women in aviation and to inform and inspire today's art audience by commemorating the lives of women pilots and women significant to aviation.
Life experiences inspire her art. Giving the viewer a glimpse of the world from her point of view is always the ultimate pursuit. Her website www.geerkellas.com gives an overview of her extensive body of work.
