About Kendra
I discovered that I loved... or rather needed art, when I was a teenager. After receiving a Bachelor Of Design Degree at the Alberta College (now University) of Arts and Design, I received a scholarship to study art in Manhattan at The School of Visual Arts.
​
Upon finishing my studies I became an advertising art director in NYC. I created advertising campaign for a wide variety of clients, including Denny's, sunglass hut, Meijer, Duane Reade, Newmans Own, and Chobani Yogurt.
​
Next stop on my journey; Cambodia. I moved across the world to join a marketing agency focused on humanitarian efforts. Some clients included Lucky Iron Fish, Friends International, Better Work Vietnam, and the United Nations.
​
In 2015, I returned to Canada to be with family, launching my career as an independent creative. Today, I lead Creations By Kendra, a versatile creative company specializing in illustration, design, and creative development.
Alex + Mom Creations
A Child's Imagination Plus Professional Art
Alex + Mom Creations is an art collection for charity. 50% of all profits from this art collection goes to help kids in need. The rest goes into my daughters education fund.
When Alex was five, she saw me creating art for a charity auction to support children with a rare genetic disorder. Inspired to help, she grabbed her crayons and drew a magnificent lion-unicorn. This act of kindness filled my heart. I digitally recreated her drawing, and together we submitted it for auction. Our 'mommy-daughter' teamwork-artwork sold for $450. To a 4 year old, this amount of money was unheard of. This success further inspired Alex. Now, Alex is eager to continue making a difference. and I am all but thrilled to be her artistic assistant.
Art Lessons
In 2016, I began offering private one-on-one art classes. In 2020, I joined Outschool as an Art and Design Instructor, where I've had the privilege of teaching thousands of learners! I can proudly say that I have taught people from age 3-95
​
My teaching covers a broad spectrum of art, including fundamental concepts like perspective, lighting, composition, color, and shading, as well as various drawing styles such as realism, cartooning, contour drawing, pointillism, and abstract art, using mediums like colored pencils and markers. I also teach watercolor and acrylic painting, as well as graphic design, advertising, and creative problem-solving.
​
During my classes, I lead by example, actively creating alongside my students.​
​
For one-on-one lessons, please contact me directly. For group classes, you can find my offerings on Outschool.
I specialize in expressive animal portraits because they bring joy to myself and others.
