Jubilee Riley


Based out of Kelso Washington, Jubilee Rose Riley is a traditional artist with a love for teaching. Beginning her classical instruction in 2013,  (Master's School of Art, Portland, OR.) she has continued on to teach the skills and mediums she's learned alongside Art for All Nations, a non-profit organization teaching masterful art and providing opportunities both locally and overseas to people of all ages and skill levels. Jubilee got her start in mural art creating an original piece (2017) in Seoul, South Korea, and has received numerous awards with both MSOA and AFAN for her traditional pieces. Working, teaching and traveling alongside her husband Luke Riley, (who she met as a fellow art student/instructor at MSOA) she hopes through her art to spark a sense of light, awe and wonder in the world around her, leaving each observer feeling inspired, grounded, and brightened.

Luke Riley


Luke is a traditional artist (acrylic, oil, and poster paint, as well as pen and ink and illustration), and an art teacher at AFAN (artforallnations.com), teaching drawing and painting to ages 12 and up. His heart as a creator is to simply show what captivates his heart, and hopefully share that experience with others in the way he sees it. Things that captivates his heart, and therefore what he hopes to show, are elements and concepts like “The Beauty/the crown of creation", family, youth, maternity, motherhood, fatherhood, things lovely and bright, nature, the wild, fantasy, adventure, ancient history and culture, masculinity and femininity. He is inspired by the masters of classical art and hopes to reach the skill level of artists such as Waterhouse, Blashfield, Maxfield Parish, Bouguereau, Vermeer, and many others he loves someday.
