Keri Old­ham manip­u­lates water­color to cre­ate human-like forms that cor­re­spond nicely with both the sculp­tures and lis­ten­ing col­lec­tion also present in her portfolio.

Keri’s water color draw­ings are exag­ger­ated, sat­u­rated, and are simul­ta­ne­ously cos­tumes and a rep­re­se­n­a­tion of the human physique. Each pose is telling of the atti­tude pos­sessed by each fig­ure, and I love how she stretches and pulls the pig­ment to cre­ate shapes that are both loose and detailed.

Cor­re­spond­ing with her draw­ings, Keri has cre­ated sculp­tures which utl­ize the same sense of color and shape in her two dimen­sional work. They are things worn on the head and things to be car­ried. The sculp­tures are mixed media, and while not exactly prac­ti­cal, pair dif­fer­ent tex­tures and meth­ods of con­struc­tion together in its own har­mo­nious way.
