In many peoples’ lives, there may be a period of time or an incident that leaves them in a state of hopelessness and without a glimmer of hope. It could be an impending doom that appears to be approaching and we must plead to God for our dire need and his immediate rescue.

A skilled portraitist and avid surfer, Robert von Kepner’s creative journey has been inspired by the natural world around him since adolescence. With his innate inclination for capturing the essence of individuals and a keen eye for detail, Robert found his true calling in the intricate world of portrait illustration in the classical style of chiaroscuro. He primarily uses graphite and the effect of monochromatic contrast in his artwork. Through this technique, he is able to exude vivid emotions from the subjects in his drawings, representing distress, strength, and faith.

Robert’s work earned acclaim locally and nationally. From scholarship awards offered by CBS Studios to solo exhibitions and book publications, Robert’s visual works and writings have a prolific impact on all who experience them.
