CAVU Cellars Welcomes Artists Ariel Anderson,
Mary Davies Kerns, and Janni Kerns
August 1 through September 17, 2025
Reception Friday, August 1, 5 to 7 PM
Ariel
grew up in Yakima, Washington, and began painting in elementary school.
Her mother’s first major was in art; she taught Ariel how to paint and
always encouraged creativity. In high school, Ariel took art
classes at the community college to learn different techniques of
creating art. She moved to Walla Walla in 2007, where she earned
her Registered Nurse license. She says she has enjoyed painting as a
creative outlet from her day work of helping keep people healthy.
 
Mary
Davies Kerns has been a professional artist for over thirty years, and
she has been a cattle rancher all her life. Would being a professional
artist be easier if she weren’t a full-time rancher? Yes, but her
artwork wouldn’t be the same. Her paintings are of her life. She and her
husband live on the ranch her grandfather homesteaded in the early
1900’s. The arid high desert of Eastern Oregon is what Mary paints. The
cattle she observes out her dining room window, the horses, the dogs,
the sunsets…these are Mary’s subject matter. The sky, the clouds, the
sagebrush haunt her with their subtle beauty.
 
Born
in Baker City, Oregon, Janni has spent her adult life in Eastern Oregon.
She attended Oregon State University and graduated with a B.S. in Art.
With concentrations in Graphic Design and Scientific Illustration. She
later attended Eastern Oregon State College and completed post
baccalaureate studies in Science Education. Janni has worked as a ranch
hand, engineering technician, teacher, freelance graphic artist.

My art signifies what is most important to me, and I create to share
