Keri Sallee
Keri Sallee has always been a lover of all things creative. From crafting to cooking to music, her brain has always worked just a little differently.
Although she went to school for music ministry and is a classically trained soprano, her creativity took a new turn after her son was born and she was introduced to scrapbooking and paper crafting. From there her love of all things messy, bright and fun began to bloom. While her main focus is the world of faith art and bible journaling, she enjoys all forms of hands-on creativity and is always looking for new things to play with. (Just look at her studio! LOL)
Keri has lived in Northwest Arkansas for almost 18 years with her loving and supportive family: her hubby of 20 years, Kendall, son KJ (19), daughters Kylee (15) and Khloe (13) and a couple of lazy and cuddling English Bulldogs - Bubba and Blaze.
When she isn't using her creative muscles, she is using her leg muscles...training for her first 100 mile ultra marathon, scheduled July 2023.
