Welcome to Hannah Keyes Photography & Books! I am an author, artist, and a photographer of over a decade. My roots are in black and white film photography and darkroom work, but since I have expanded into digital work as well. Wildlife and nature make up the majority of my photography focus.
Greetings, I am a visual artist based in Laurel, Maryland.
A graduated from Towson University in 2016 with a BS in Advertising and Art + Design. I have a wide range of mediums from digital to sculpture. I am currently focused on fluid art and oil pastel. I love getting inspiration from women and nature. I like earthy tones and bright pops of color.
Abstract art is such a fun and creative medium that in 2019 I started my own fluid art classes called Paint & Pour. I have hosted at The Remy in New Carrollton, Six Flags in Largo, as well as my own events.
Karen Raukko Ruberry grew up on the shores of a small, quiet creek in southeast Baltimore County, loving and enjoying the water and rural farm fields surrounding her childhood home. She still lives in northeast Baltimore County. The rural life of Baltimore County, Maryland and Pennsylvania are captured in her paintings, and her memories of life on the Chesapeake takes the viewer on a rambling tour through the region. She also paints flowers from her gardens, and gardens in the surrounding areas.
I have lived in this area most of my life. I am from Harpers Ferry and attended the Banner School and St. John's at Prospect Hall in Frederick. My mother taught art at Banner and at other schools. My father worked for the NPS as an architect, so I got a Masters in Architecture to work with him. I create multimedia art, books, and music with SCOD (the Sustainable Cooperative for Organic Development). We collaborate with other artists, authors, and musicians for non-profit non-competitive organic production as a primary aspect of living. My pen name is Drogo Empedocles. Blessed be.
For 13 years, I have been a full-time painter, mixed media, and fiber artist. From 2009-2011 I lived and exhibited my work around the Washington D.C. area and was a 2011 visiting artist at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, Virginia. From 2012-2019, I lived in Ramstein, Germany where I collaborated with German artists and continued to produce and show work, including a Dada-inspired embroidery installation. Currently, I live in Baltimore, Maryland.

About The Artist
Art is capturing a moment of time.
A moment of one’s soul.
That is why every piece of art is different even if we are looking at the
same model or the same still life or landscape.
It has to be different because the art is a reflection of who we are at the moment, and how we are relating to the object or person at that moment.
In doing so, we are bringing our histories with us:
Our past, present and hopes for the future.
I really don’t know what led me to art. I didn’t get there until much later in life.
