Kristen Powers or, Kae Pea, as her friends call her, is a designer, instructor, illustrator, painter and creative moon beam. It is not uncommon to find her in her studio, experimenting with numerous creative projects, a wide variety of mediums or maybe dabbling with digital art, all on any given day!
She was, until 2011 at age forty five, a self taught, mixed-media artist, when she went on to receive her B.F.A. in Studio Art from Maryville University in Saint Louis. In 2012 she took over RubberMoon Art Stamps, and merged her love of paper crafts and illustration with her passion for art. In 2020, She purchased ArtFoamies™ Foam stamps! She brings her enthusiasm and knowledge to like-minded creative souls through live and online workshops all across the USA and abroad.
Kae Pea is a firm believer in the magical powers of art making and loves nothing more than to share her ideas, inspire and empower others to 'get makey' and live their creative dreams. Originally from the California Bay Area, Kae Pea lives and operates The Moon & The Maker Creative Space in a historic little river town in the Midwest. Kae Pea has been featured in 'Where Women Create Work' and has appeared multiple times on the PBS show, 'Make it Artsy'.
