Kerri Pajutee is an American artist residing in the scenic high desert of Central Oregon who specializes in creating lifelike miniature 1:12 scale animals of clay and fiber. Internationally recognized among dollhouse miniature aficionados, Kerri’s distinctive sculptures can be found in many private collections throughout the world, and on permanent display in the Kathleen Savage Browning Miniatures Collection at the Kentucky Gateway Museum.

"As a self-taught artist, I revel in the creative process. Sculpting has afforded me a means of expression and provided over four decades of never-ending trial and fascination. My art is motivated by a desire to capture and express that ‘spark’ of personality within each miniature replica, while reflecting a personal encounter or endearing memory that will delight the heart and bring a smile to the face of the observer".

"Today, Kerri balances her life and art by working part-time in the studio to produce a limited number of sculptures per year. This arrangement keeps her work fresh and rewarding.
