KIERAN “KIKI” CROWLEY
Kieran Crowley resides in Austin, Texas. She attended the University of Austin.
Here is my story of why I love to paint: Consistently staring at the canvases of my grandfather along the hallways of my house retrieves new ideas and inspirations to paint. My grandfather was a poor schizophrenic artist, spending his days lost in painting or taking medications that took away his ability to express his talent creatively. My inspirations for art are Van Gogh and my grandfather due to their dedication to exploring new mediums, regardless of suffering from schizophrenia. I am driven to create entirely unknown images unseen to the world. My process for creating pieces is motivated by my sense of wonderment: “How can I show the story behind ordinary objects?”
