Kendra is a self-taught artist based out of Molalla, Oregon. She lives on a small homestead with her husband Joseph, and three children.
Kendra works in a variety of mediums including watercolor, acrylic, ink, and graphite. Her subject matter varies as much as her medium choices. With a background in horticulture and a deep love for the natural world, the majority of her art includes an element of nature. She also loves painting and sketching the human body, and making an occasional, unconventional macabre piece.
Fairly new to the world of art, Kendra has been seriously focusing on her work since January of 2019. Although an artist since childhood, she never thought that pursuing her fair-weathered hobby could ever be a reality. It was only after she had an overwhelming amount of encouragement and support from friends and family to get her work out that she finally made the decision to do it.
Professionally, Kendra is a creative for a holistic pet product company, Natural Pet LIX.
She is also working on an illustration project for a children’s book series. In her other time, she is busy filling commissions and finishing new pieces for her portfolio.
Kendra’s biggest aspiration as an artist is to simply bring nothing but light into the world with her work.

I created 13MOONS Magazine to resurrect the sacred feminine in Stories and Art. As a Seeress who'd worked directly with Oshun, Yemaya, Oya, and other earlier Goddesses, I noticed a stark difference in these energies and those of later iterations, such as Venus and Aphrodite. It is like parts of these beings were stripped away. Whether to fit the fashion of culture or men, I'll leave for you to decide, but this just didn't sit right with my spirit. And so I dreamed of a platform which would amplify the real voice of the feminine - Stories and Art created by actual women from our perspective, without apology. And here we are.I am called Astara, a name I received during meditation, meaning Little Sirius. I am here to draw down the energy of Ast, also known as Auset, Isis, and the latest: Mother Mary, truly just a hint of the Original anymore. I am here to Remember and to help Remind us of who we are as women, who we are beneath patriarchal whitewashing and power politics as religion. I am here to Remind us of the wisdom we hold within each of our cells which we have mistakenly (and blasphemously) called our meat suit. I am a Sensual Fluency Educator and Tranceworker, offering tools I've channeled from my own body to help you connect with yours. Reach out anytime if you'd like to hear more.
