Madeline Long Kerr
"Art to me is love. It's the love of seeing happiness in my client's eye when presented with the commission they requested; it's the love of doing the work with all its intricacies, challenges and techniques; it's the love of using the God-given talent - He gave me and helps me with each day; it's the love of using color, form, drawing, design, hue, texture, shadows, highlights - all that goes into a work of art. I'm truly blessed to work in an art that I love so much." - Madeline Long Kerr
