Kerry came to Shallal Studios through dance and performance with Shallal Dance Theatre. Kerry works closely with artist facilitator Melanie Young, experimenting with new techniques, mediums and styles. Kerry has an energetic way of working and is interested in a wide range of themes from portraiture to abstraction.

Over time in Art and Production afternoons she discovered freedom in working on an ipad and creating art. Kerry's studio practice is drawing, print and painting based. She is interested in playing with her materials often bringing in her movement and dance experience into the way she uses materials.

Kerry has exhibited at Newlyn Art Gallery and Krowji Open Studios.
