Enjoy art by local artist Elizabeth A., located in the gallery area in The Corner.

A life-long artist and mostly self-taught, Kristen Neveu currently resides in nature near many lakes halfway between Chicago and Milwaukee. Growing up in the Midwest, after graduating from The University of Iowa with a Communications major, she began painting in the evenings after work. Kristen’s artwork combines mixed materials, including acrylic and oil paint, pencil, paper, fabric, and fragments of wood. Kristen is inspired by nature, music, and collecting salvaged materials and possessions. Selected exhibitions include James May Gallery in Milwaukee, WI; The Robert Wright Gallery of Art at College of Lake County, Grayslake, IL; The Saw Room Gallery in Evanston; The Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Barnsdall Art Gallery in Los Angeles, and Woman Made Gallery, Chicago, and many art pop-up exhibitions in local businesses and libraries. Also skilled in image archiving and legalities, Kristen’s job experience includes Getty Images, Warner Bros. Entertainment Media Archives, and HMH Education.
