Artist's Story: I’m Ashley Krieger, a traveling artist that loves to capture all the beauty that I see while I go to new and exciting places. I love to relax and escape in my paintings. So, they are quiet, still, and without commotion, or chaos. I use art to deal with illness, depression, and anxiety. I've noticed so many benefits coping with those when creating art. With God's direction, I realized that one of my purposes in this life is to share the joy I find in art with others. At first, I didn’t feel worthy, but I started anyway and began selling and teaching art. I love painting and teaching equally, but I am not one without the other. Now I help others all over the world find joy from art. Here I can teach you how to paint - the skills you need, offer you inspiration, and encourage you to be creative.
