Kelly’s Shiny New Blog

Art and other sparkly things.

Make Fufu, Not War

t’s been awhile!

I have all kinds of excuses, but the only interesting one is the two-week vacation (honeymoon!) Marc and I took in Ghana from the end of May through the beginning of June.

SOMA: SO Much Awesomeness

(It was today, anyway.  Other days, it’s South of Market Street.)
Enough of this unintentional hiatus from blog updates.
As of today, I’m 3 paintings lighter!  I delivered “Little Black Dress,” “Hoodie,” and “SF2008″ this morning to my favorite San Francisco Salon, G-Squared, in the SOMA neighborhood. The owner, Neil, has been keeping my hair *done* since [...]

These shoes were made for … flying!

I am so excited. “Black Heels” is, as I type, in flight to its new home. What an unexpected (and wonderful) surprise of a sale!
I sent the box out yesterday morning, and I’m still over the moon. (Isn’t that great?)
Aside from obsessing about the packing, the addressing of the package and now [...]

Give It Away Now!

Today I met Charles, winner of the framed print of “Strum” from my random drawing following the Tiburon Art Festival.

We met at his office at Prepress, Inc., in San Francisco (SOMA). Prepress is awesome.  In fact, all day, I haven’t stopped talking about how cool the place is.  Charles gave me a tour (I [...]

(So? How did it go?)

Six paintings sold!  I am absolutely thrilled.  Hooray Tiburon Art Festival!
The website will be updated soon to show that the following paintings are now in private collections:  Handbag, Earrings, Golddigger, Mossy Mind, Party Dress, and Take-Out.  I am really pleased to send my art into the world, and into such wonderful homes.
I’ll add a longer [...]

Ready To Go

Well, the paintings are all packed up and ready to go to Tiburon.
Last night, we laid-out what we think will look good on the panels of the tent. And then I took a picture. And then we bundled them into the boxes.  Here are most of them:

Yesterday, because I’m like that, I called [...]

Strum: Framed Print for Art Festival Giveaway!

(Free Stuff!)
As I mentioned in my post on Friday, I will be giving away a framed print of “Strum” through a random drawing following the Portfolio tab of my website. I have also included a photo of it here:

This giclée print is matted and in a 17″ x 10″ black metal frame. The [...]

Postcard!

I’ve been working on a postcard to promote me, my art, and my booth at the Tiburon Art Festival.
So far, this is what I’ve got for the front.  For whatever reason, the file does not look this bright until I use a file uploader. Then it goes neon. In any event, I’m not [...]

Special Delivery to Palo Alto

You may have seen a painting on my Facebook Fan Page a few weeks ago that I called “One.”  It was on the small side, 6″ x 6″, but the painting turned out well, so I posted a photo of it.
And what happened next is just one example of why I love social media. [...]

Photoworks vs. Imagekind

Which is which, you ask?
The original canvas is on the left, Imagekind print at 11″ x 11″ is in the center, and Photoworks print at 9″ x 9″ is on the right.
The files used for both prints were exactly the same with the color profile embedded in the file with no color correction performed by [...]
