About me

Introduction Kelly is a creative consultant & conceptual artist from Oakland California, & Cape Town, South Africa. She is fascinated by movement, large gestures, color, beauty, taste. texture, & thinking outside the box. She got her degree in interior architecture from the University of Oregon, where her vision of "outside the box" thinking, & breaking so-called "rules" began to emerge. She feasted on conceptual delights in her studios, & was completely mesmerized, in this same vein, by her numerous modern & african dance classes. She paints, playing with the abstraction of words and letters, dances, sings, & is hugely interested in large-scale installation art & photography. She just bought a surfboard, and has a tasty, new baby. She's been selling apples for an orchard out of the Sierra Nevada foothills (in California) for 7 years. She has a serious love for gorgeous, delectable produce, farmer's markets, edible schoolyards, & the outdoors.
