Jeremiah Ketner is a Chicago-based artist who depicts colorful, carefree, images of flowers and fairies. He met and married a Japanese woman who took him to Japan. Ever since, he has been mesmerized by modern Japanese aesthetics, and it shows in his work. Ketner is drawn to a simplicity that he finds in nature, particularly flowers. He studied at the Columbus College of Art and Design and the Southern Illinois University.
