About

Martha Keeble is the owner of Sewanee Art Works and has long dreamed of having this studio for the community. She has 35 years of experience teaching art to people of all ages.

 

Martha earned a BFA in Painting/Drawing from the University of Georgia and a Master’s Degree in art education from Georgia State University. Before teaching private lessons full-time, she taught art at St. Andrew’s Sewanee School and as well as schools in the Atlanta area. 

​

Her experience traveling around the world at the age of 21, combined with her art training, expanded her interests in metaphysics, mysticism, spirituality, and creativity. “I am attracted to color as a way of finding personal connection between spirit and matter," Martha says.

​

The studio’s name, Sewanee Art Works, intentionally has two meanings: It is a place for Sewanee Art Works to be created and exist. And, she said, “It is a reminder that art really works. It works on our hearts and our souls. It works to heal and restore. It works in ways we cannot always understand, but I know that art works.

​

“I’m here to encourage people to discover their creativity and grow their skills as they learn about art, color, form, and style,” she says.
