About Kylene

Kylene is a California based artist who uses inspirations and findings in her outdoor adventures as major influences in her creative practices. As a climber, skier and surfer she spends time in a multitude of ecosystems which have a vast array of biodiversity. All of her art is inspired by elements in the natural world that she has had a direct interactions with. She hopes to use her illustrations as a tool to not only invigorate and excite others to get outside and love this planet, but also as a tool to help understand the interworking of the earth that we tread on. Through her art she hopes to help others gain a better perception on how important nature is and why preserving it is key for us all to continue to live healthy, happy lives in harmony with Mother Earth.
