Kelley Sullivan – Q1 Art Competition – Artist Portfolio Magazine

As a mixed media painter I carry a strong belief that art should evoke a powerful response, with feelings deeply personal to each viewer. The organic movement of paint within water allows me to work with little preconceptions, letting the medium decide much of its own path. With nature as the heart of my inspiration, I aim to create a complex, emotional landscape by building layer upon layer; dipping, soaking, and drenching the canvas after each application of paint until images emerge.
