I️ hope you enjoy today's episode with Kelsey Howard. Learn more about Kelsey in her own words below.

I was born and raised in Wilmington, NC. After graduating from Elon University in 2014 with an art major and biology minor, I attended UNC- Greensboro and became a registered nurse. While I had made art for many years, I became much more invested in painting as I grew in my first year as a nurse. Sitting in front of an easel after a day of work brought me a lot of joy and relaxation.

The first subject I truly loved to paint was the human face. My initial interest started when I was probably 11 or 12 years old and began as an interest in anatomy. My style eventually developed into a love of using bright colors while working in more subtle colors, textures, and details. After a few years working as a registered nurse, I left to pursue painting full time and currently work out of an at home studio. When I’m not painting, you’ll usually find me walking at the beach or a local park near our neighborhood. I love to gather artistic inspiration from traveling and nature. My husband and I currently live in Wilmington, NC with our two dogs, a cat, and a lot of plants.
