Hello, I'm Kelly
I’m here to help people step into a more creative life — to spark your inspiration, fuel your amazing life energy, and rewild you with art. I create lovely freebies and great offers to empower you to discover a life of more joy and fulfilment through your own creativity.
I call this creative living.
My three power sources are creativity, nature, and magic. Let me explain why...
- I champion creativity because I believe it will help us save the world.
- I connect to nature to feel alive and experience awe.
- And I tap into the magic of our world to feel the source and feed my soul.
Alongside my art and teaching, I also collaborate with organisations that want to bring more imagination and creativity into their work — from wellbeing and heritage to cultural and social projects. You can explore that side of what I do on my 'hire me' page.
Born on the fair, with a roaming soul, I’ve always been drawn to the wondrous, the soulful, and the beautifully unexpected — and I bring that same curiosity into everything I create and teach.
You’ll find me leading creative wellbeing experiences, painting wild landscapes, and exploring how imagination can heal and inspire.
As seen at: Bullclough Art School, Virtual Art Summit, Art Is Magic, Flourish with Nicola Newman, Banks Mill Studios, Pecha Kucha International, Creative Mornings, SXSW, and Warner Hotels.
MY STORY
Â
I didn't live in a house until I was eight when I went to boarding school. I grew up on the travelling fair, from a long line of Showmen and with Romany & Irish Traveller heritage too. It was a real challenge for me to settle down into school life and I still feel the pull of the road even now.Â
As I grew up I did all the typical things society expects of us; built a career, got married, had kids, and yet, as I turned 40, I found myself divorced and in a big corporate job, wondering how I had ended up there.Â
Where was the magic, the wonder and the freedom? Why did my achievements feel soulless? Where had my true self disappeared to? And so I started to bring more nature and creativity into my life and what unfolded was pure magic.
Nature and creativity were transformative for me. Layering that with wide-eyed wonder and a curiosity for the mythical, my life became joyful, more free, more meaningful.
I'd love to come along on your creative living journey too.Â
