Resume - men's work shirt- sky blue button down shirt with a stiff collar - ORIGINAL painting - acrylic on recycled wood TITLE: Resume Sky blue work shirt button down a little starchy ready to wear This pot is from my "Potential" series paintings done of simple/empty objects with their potential not yet realized I did these paintings in 2010. At the time my sons were 4 and 6 years old, and as I learned to be a mom and thought about their future I often struggled. I was only at peace when I realized that these little balls of energy were full of so much potential. Nothing for them has been decided yet. the same was true for me- I, even in my 30s, could be anything I wanted. I was also full of potential… and I should not lose that hope and joy. Painting details acrylic paint on reclaimed wood (an off white cabinet door circa 1950s) Size: 12x14x.5 aprox ready to hang, no frame needed the cabinet door makes for a wonderfully finished piece- and a unique statement Completion date- December 2010 Before landing here this collection traveled around shown at: The Atlas Gallery Margies Gallery Madison and Main Gallery The Oak Room Gallery at UNC and Zoes Technical Mumbo-jumbo: All are it done by me with my two hands :) Custom orders will take 2 weeks to complete All print and completed art will ship with in three days from Colorado Originals ALWAYS come with delivery confirmation- contact me if you would like insurance, or speedier shipping let me know Ships from Colorado.

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!
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.
