Kasia Moon Wilusz
Kasia combines a sense of humor, whimsy, and occasional satire into a myriad of creative endeavors derived from experiences that include the raising of future adults, volunteerism, and farming.
An avid hiker, horseback riding, hot-rod owner & cross-country driver coupled with her adventures abroad have all added spice to her work's soup that morphs as the vision changes.
Sculpting in terracotta and paper mache, painting in oil, acrylic, and watercolor, along with utilizing textiles and printmaking have all been used at various times when expressing a theme.
'How to achieve the visual goal?' is an often addressed conundrum at the core of her creative passion.
"Shoot for the Moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars" - Norman Vincent Peale
