 Kerry
L. Vosler was born in Seattle, Washington in 1957. She received
her formal art training the old fashioned way studying directly
with master instructors. Her most influential instructors
were, Daniel Greene, Robert Liberace, Lois Griffel & Judith
Carducci.
Kerry began studies in graphic design but soon realized she
loved the portrait and figure. She became a plein air painter
to expand her knowledge of color and to offer portrait commission
clients more than just the typical indoor portrait. Today
Kerry is a seasoned plein air painter, portrait and figurative
artist. She is equally skilled in the mediums of oil, pastel,
charcoal and conte.
For the past five years Kerry has been collaborating with
local Flamenco Dancers to create historic representational
paintings depicting the art form of Classical Spanish Flamenco.
Along with her regular commissions and teaching schedule she
is beginning a Mural featuring Flamenco and expanding to other
dance art forms.
In 2010 Kerry founded the Vosler Young Artists’ Studio,
A Classical Atelier for children under eighteen in Tampa,
Florida. Kerry has been the Florida Ambassador for the Portrait
Society of America since 2005. In 2012 she was appointed faculty
to the Portrait Society of America’s Annual Portrait
Academy, Miami, Florida. Kerry is also a board member of the
Southern Atelier Classical Art School in Sarasota, Florida.
Kerry has taught drawing, portrait, figure and plein air painting
for many years. She teaches regular classes and workshops
at the Kerry Vosler Studio & Atelier in Tampa, Florida
and nationally. The TECO Public Art Gallery hosted Kerry’s
first SOLO show in Tampa, Florida, September 4 - October 31,
2012.
Among Kerry’s most notable select commissions, is former
Congressman “Ike” Skelton, D-MO. Her paintings hang
in private collections in Australia, The United States and
Europe. Kerry continues to be a driving force for the preservation
of fine arts education.
Kerry lives in Valrico, Florida, a suburb of Tampa, with
her husband Jim. They have two grown children, James and Scott.
