Kaylee Rakowski is a "down to earth" self taught artist. She specializes in wet on wet nature oil paintings. In Kaylee's earlier years, she was an amateur photographer, a coach, an outdoor enthusiast, and professional athlete. She also enjoys swimming, running, hiking, climbing and musical arts. Her heart always remains true to the sights and sounds of nature.

Following an injury from the trail in early 2021, Kaylee found solace in an old television show, a classic Oil Painter we all know and love. He conveyed such a graceful and peaceful style of painting nature scenes, which allowed imagination to run wild. This inspired Kaylee to begin painting.

While in recovery, unable to walk, and having zero knowledge about painting, Kaylee taught herself how to use oils on canvas to travel to places she was unable to see. Now, she uses a modified style and technique of some of the greatest wet on wet oil landscape and floral artists: Bob Ross, Bill Alexander, and Lowell Speers.

Presently; Kaylee is actively filming tutorials for her Youtube channel @kayleerakowskiart, where she shares her passion for wet on wet nature oil painting. She also paints live while selling her work at art festivals and national street fairs, completing a paintings in under 3 hours.
