First anniversary - paper anniversary - life map - custom art made to order. My good friend Betony just did a show with the theme of maps. Amazing. Later I found myself drawing a diagram/map/web of all the things I love about her. Secrets, farm houses, flight, love, waiting… all of the things I have experienced with her and because of her. On Sunday I drew a second map. A map of the things I love about my life in this small sometimes unremarkable town. Tell me your story, and I will draw you a modified Icon-map for you too. I love to share story. As with all custom drawings you will be given first right of refusal, and are very welcome to include colors and symbols you love. Ask for one for you, a friend, your whole family. The concept will be the same--- bubbles and lines--- but personal to the narative that belongs to you.

Hello! I'm Kelly - a painter and illustrator in Colorado.
I love to do custom projects with people. Each piece of art starts as a story, an idea. You tell me your story, or float a new idea and we collaborate.
You dream, I draw!
We work together until the final product is exactly what you dreamed.
Original Art makes an incredible gift for a new couple, a new baby, a new job, a new graduate or simply a new start in life.
Some of my favorite projects are "life maps" that is where you tell me your favorite stories (about you, you and a friend, you and a spouse…) and I draw tiny illustrations that make up your "life map"
I also love to do just about any animal on just about any surface. Your colors, your themes, my hand work.
I am open to all sorts of custom ideas and challenges. Check out my portfolio. If our styles connect let's create a project together!

Kelly was super easy to work with and the project is adorable. Great value for a unique one of a kind personal gift!
Kelly did a great job on this project -- it was a real pleasure to work with her. She responded quickly, offered several clear and appealing options, and turned around the project in record time when I selected a path forward. I reached out to Kelly on a Saturday, paid on Sunday and had my order in hand by Wednesday. The prints are beautiful! And, as if that wasn't enough, she sent 8 free additional prints and even an original. A real pleasure working with Kelly. I look forward to ordering from her again.
