Her work focuses on the flowers and wildlife in her garden and the local bushland.
Thirteen or so years ago, Kerryn enrolled in an introductory printmaking course at the Australian Print Workshop in Fitzroy. It was a revelation, and she still remembers the thrill of her first print. Kerryn believes that at the heart of every print is drawing and that it is key to her practice. She fills pocket-sized sketchbooks with drawings of everyday things and her travels. Many of these drawings are then translated into ideas for possible prints.
Kerryn creates her prints using wood, lino, acetate or copper. She utilises a range of media for her drawings including pen, pencil, charcoal and watercolours.
Kerryn Amery is a printmaker and drawer, who lives in the North East of Victoria. She studied drawing and painting at Riverina TAFE and has completed a number of printmaking and art workshops in Victoria and Greece.
Kerryn is a member of the Creators Artspace in Wodonga and a volunteer at the Benalla Art Gallery.
