Kelsey has been painting for as long as she can remember and continued to pursue it during my undergraduate studies.. One Christmas, her husband gifted her an easel, inspiring her to rekindle her love for painting. Now, she dedicates her early mornings and late nights to working with acrylics, soft and oil pastels, while her boys sleep.

Her mixed media work generally has a soft, impressionistic quality, capturing the beauty in serene settings.

Kelsey lives in Illinois with her husband and their two young boys.
