Kelsey Heaton

Student and Artist in Columbus, Ohio

Between binge watching Netflix and craving sleep, you’ll find this kid hunched over her laptop trying to draw the same fricken line 20+ times because it just. Isn’t. RIGHT. Along with her obsessive drive towards perfection, she is also a quick learner and humble (is it a contradiction to call oneself humble?). As she is currently in art school, she dreams of one day taking all of her passion for art and making bank off of it (while also, you know, occasionally giving back to society).

Having a strong background in traditional media, she has ventured into the digital realm with the desire to carry over her painterly style. With way too many Kyle T Webster brushes and endurance to-boot, she has furiously attacked her projects with texture and perseverance. Moving forward, she continues to explore the use of line while also abstracting reality to create simplified versions of objects. But, At the end of the day, Kelsey’s main goals are to connect with people, to express conceptual ideas and narratives, to infuse her art with her quiet sense of humor, and to pet as many dogs as possible.
