January Featured Artist

My husband Kevin and I are two artists with one vision, working side-by-side on the same canvas. We've been blessed to share our passion for painting and are more excited about it now than when we started. Our work has become bolder, more colorful, and hopefully more engaging to the viewer.

Wendy and Kevin's collaborative art pieces have been exhibited in some of the country's most prominent galleries, alongside renowned artists such as Peter Max, Salvador Dali, Picasso, and Rembrandt. In 2003, the Wisconsin Foundation for the Arts honored Schaefer/Miles by selecting them as their commissioned artists. As a result, they were able to hang one of their elegant oil paintings in the governor's mansion, where it has become a part of Madison's Elvehjem Museum's permanent collection. The impressionistic artworks of Schaefer/Miles have been widely published and admired by over 7 million people annually, with distribution in over 40 countries worldwide. Despite their incredible level of exposure, Wendy and Kevin have shunned media attention. The private artists reside on a farm located in one of the least populated areas of Western Wisconsin, where they can find new inspiration and privacy to be creative. The artists often feature the beauty of the surrounding countryside in their works.
