Kerry Harding, a landscape painter, works from Krowji Studios in Redruth. In 1994 she gained a BA (Hons) at the Ruskin School of Drawing & Fine Art, Oxford University. She followed up her studies with an MA in Fine Art at Falmouth College of Art in 2003. Later that year she was awarded a residency and solo exhibition at the Perth International Arts Festival.
