Kerri Weller

A painter with a passion for all things botanical, Kerri's work has been published in Fine Art Connoisseur magazine, juried into numerous international exhibitions and acquired by the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation. Capturing the beauty of the plant world, her paintings range from small plein air panels to highly finished, realist works.

The Royal Canadian Mint has released two coins featuring Kerri's designs. The first in 2018, a commemorative gold coin “The Armistice Poppy”, and most recently in 2019,  “Lest We Forget”  a silver coin honouring our veterans.

In 2020, her painting, Parrot Tulips, was included in the book Botanical Art Techniques published by the American Society of Botanical Artists. Also, her painting, Prickly Pear Cacti was juried into an exhibition, ‘Artists for Conservation, International Exhibit of Nature in Art’, in Arizona Sonora Desert Museum.

Kerri resides in Ottawa Ontario but spends a little of every summer in the Maritimes.   Married to a Maritimer, she treasures their summers exploring this wonderful region of Canada. Her favourite times are hiking in Gros Morne and Fundy National Parks, Passamaquoddy Bay by ferry boat, and cycling the southern and Fundy coastlines of Nova Scotia. Can anything rival the 40 foot tides of the Bay of Fundy?
