"Kuerner Hill" is the famous hill that was painted by Andrew Wyeth, and it belongs to the Kuerner Family Farm in Chadds Ford, PA. "I was always very inspired by the life and the history of Andrew Wyeth. Shortly after having my second child, my husband and I went on the Nathaniel Wyeth's home tour in Chadds Ford, PA, and from that day on I have been connected to the energy of the Wyeth family. A few years later I ended up taking classes at the Darlington Arts Center in Boothwyn, PA, where I studied under Karl Kuerner, to later realize that he was a well-known Brandywine Valley artist who was mentored by Andrew Wyeth. I now consider him a mentor of my own." - Annette Alessi
