About Kelly...
Kelly
Morehouse is an artist with a feel for the peaceful, the calm, and the
gentle. The art she creates reflects her attitude toward that which enriches
our lives without the clutter of today’s hectic world. People, nature,
contemplative abstracts and similar types of introspective subjects are her
usual focus.Born in Newfoundland, raised in Kansas, New Brunswick & Alberta, Kelly returned to the east coast that she loves. She now lives with her husband, daughter and many beloved critters on a hobby farm in the rolling hills of rural Nova Scotia.
After studying at NSCAD University, Kelly exhibited
at the
Khyber Institute for Contemporary Artists
in Halifax and at
Gallery 215 on the Fundy Shore in 2007/2008, and will be showing there
again for the 2009 season.
Selected
works are on display and for purchase at
Utata Gallery in
Windsor and The Sackville Wellness Centre.
Her work, for which she has won several awards, has been added to a number of private collections. She is a member of the Portrait Society of Canada and Hants County Arts Council as well as the East Hants Fine Arts Association, and for the past few years has shown her work in their annual Spring Show.
Kelly is also now serving as a member of the Working Group for The Place Near & Far Art Gallery & Workshop in Kennetcook.
When not at work in her garret or in the barn, Kelly might be found taking photographs or acting on one of the local stages or in a visiting film. Her most recent credits include a performance at Truro's Hubtown Theatre in their 2008 production of "A Touch of Danger'.
Portraiture
Kelly is equally happy working in sittings or from a photo. If you don’t have a suitable snapshot, she will take one for you.
The work will be done in whichever media you and she together decide will best suit the subject. Timeframe is also flexible according to your needs and her availability. See Gallery samples...
"Reverie" - This winsome portrait has won several awards, including Best in Show at the 2006 East Hants Fine Arts Association annual show.
Illustration
Currently in the works, illustrations for a children’s story written by James Isenor titled, “Ishmal’s Cove” Check back for upcoming illustrations.

If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint,"
then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.
