Almost home - Mountain and cloud painting in lime and charcoal- from the In the Mountains series - original acrylic painting of mountains Mountain and cloud painting - original acrylic painting of a mountain Title: Almost Home Size: 16x20 Medium: Acrylic on canvas Artist: Kelly Cook Completion Date: 2013 __________ For my series: In the Mountains Growing up in Wyoming by the Tetons, and calling the Rocky Mountains my home now, I feel totally connected to the mountains. Beautiful, dangerous, wild, tempting and menacing. I respect the mountains as much as I love them. I was really excited to sink my teeth into this group of pieces. Given a challenge by my friend Suzanne, to create a show in 4 weeks, I picked the singular theme of mountains, and wanted to see how many ways I could repeat a theme, but do it differently. These are the more literally interpretation of that theme (go here to see some of the more liberal interpretations) Like theseā¦ but want something a little different. I love to do custom. Convo me for the details :)

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 spouseā¦) 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!
fine art
recycled materials
custom orders
paintings and drawings
Everything one of a kind created just for you.

For Illustrations/PrintsKelly 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.
