KeppenArt announced that as of today, July 8th, 2021, Kathy K. McClellan has been a member of Fine Art America for the past eight years. She has uploaded hundreds of images in that time period, had over a hundred thousand visitors to her portfolio and was awarded the Fine Art America Tony Award in late 2018.

She is celebrating by accepting The Seven Day Challenge on the site, creating and posting a new image every day for seven consecutive days with a specific theme.

Late in October 2020, Kathy K. McClellan of KeppenArt was interviewed by Abbie Shores. Ms. Shore is the owner of an online magazine called Our Arts Magazine.

Kathy was asked to provide a few video links to her favorite music along with several files of her work that would be published along with the interview. The purpose of the interview was to allow readers a chance to get to know Kathy and perhaps discover new artwork that they would not otherwise have had a chance to view.

The magazine published Kathy's interview on November 3, 2020 and it can be read by following this link: https://ourartsmagazine.com/blog/2020/11/03/getting-to-know-keppenart/ .

KeppenArt announced this week that they are Going To The Dogs. That is the name of their new campaign to help raise money for life saving surgeries and treatments for shelter animals in the Lauderdate County, Florence, AL area.

100% of KeppenArt’s mark-up on eligible purchases will be donated to Chloe’s Fund. That is a fund started by Glenn and Debby Nelson of Florence, AL in honor of their beloved pet Chloe. Shelter animals that need expensive surgeries or treatments rely on that fund. Without it many of these adoptable animals would otherwise be euthanized.

KeppenArt has over two dozen images and hundreds of product and color choices that are eligible for this campaign. Check out the Going To The Dogs Collection on keppenart.com and choose your print or product. You will not only be purchasing a unique item but will also be helping to save a shelter animal’s life.
