Raised in Eastern Montana, along the Badlands of Makoshika State Park, and now living close to the Beartooths in Billings, Kelly loves to explore the wilderness and witness the beauty of nature. This inspiration along with her love of contemporary aesthetics is the driving force behind her artwork which focuses on exploring contrasting colors with contemporary scenes. With a background including a MS in Arts Administration/Finance, a BA in Business Administration and BS in Registered Nursing and Fine Arts, and an AS in Radiologic Sciences degrees, Kelly uses her colorful background to pursue her passion.

Kelly has had the wonderful privilege to have work that has been exhibited throughout the Unites States and is honored to be in numerous private collections.
