Kelly A. Schwark

Born and raised in New York’s Hudson Valley, her surroundings have had a major impact upon the way that Kelly finds her inspiration. Having the ability to appreciate the works of the masters that grace the walls of the many museums of Manhattan, as well as the chance to sit in the peacefulness of nature fed her creative soul from the beginning. Even now, the ever changing beauties of the natural surroundings never fail to act as her muse!

Life had brought her the opportunity to live in Hawaii for a few years and continued to inspire her to look toward nature for color combinations, studies of texture and balanced compositions of the natural world and the manmade world.

Currently, she lives in the Farmington River Valley of Connecticut with her husband, her always-curious toddler, and her furry studio companion, Tina the cat. Her roles of artist, mother and wife always blur together and often overlap... and she loves that!

What is in store for Kelly in 2010? She will continue to offer original pieces of art, as well as an expanding collection of invitations, birth announcements, and customizable designs thanks to Etsy. Keep your eyes open for new designs as well as some of your favorites on new products!

For now, you can continue to find Kelly's art for sale on both Etsy and CafePress.
