10×14, mixed media on watercolor paper. it reads “be silly.”
i think you could SPOT this booty from miles away. a few years ago, my friend Kat taught be about “booty-do’s” and i have never forgotten it, and it still make me laugh. A “booty-do” is when your tummy sticks out more than your booty do. hilarious, i know. anyways, my girl here has the opposite of a booty-do. i think she looks a bit like carmeron diaz, if i do say so myself, which is funny because isn’t cameron all about booty dancing and silliness? being silly. one of my favorite pastimes. i’m probably the most silly with my friend Kimmie, who is pregnant by the way. we have all sorts of booty jokes and skits. and it never gets old, to us anyways. i’m pretty sure we’re annoying to everyone else during our laughing fits.

oh, kelly! everything you do just gets better and better! i’m having a fantastic time observing your journey!
silliness is my favorite excuse for having a blog 😉
this is a very adorable mixed media production. there is something so right on in the girl´s face, she is unafraid of looking you in the eye, presenting who she is. the color scheme is grand!
You have a very unique drawing and watercolor style. I like it.
She’s a beauty, even with that bodacious booty! I love the clors! The background texture is wonderful and glowing, and her dress is so pretty with its green and pink patterns. And yes…she does look a bit like cameron Diaz..not a bad thing at all:> I love you big bellied mama below too..what a beautiful tribute to your pregnant friends!
booty-do! that is too funny! love your work and all the texture!
Wonderful colors! I love the booty! Your patterns are gorgeous! Fabulous piece of art! Just wonderful.
Love the colors and the patterns. Reminds me of Klimt.

booty-do….how funny!
this picture does look like Diaz.
Love it!
I’ve just read through your last 3 posts and thank you so much for all the kind words! I loved meeting you and your husband as well and can’t believe you are moving away so soon! It really is a shame. BUT at least I still get to see your art on your blog and keep up to date this way! These last 2 paintings are so wonderful. I don’t even have a favorite at this point it seems-they ALL are beautiful. Paint away!
Love this Kelly…especially the colors! AND..I also love all the great photos that you posted…everybody looks WONDERFUL!
Great illo and story.
Love your colors!
I am glad I found your blog through Liz. You are an incredible artist. I absolutely love these last few paintings and posts. I’m hooked!
Love the colours and the textures… Great work!
Love it Kelly! Love the booty. I’m really looking forward to seeing some of your originals in person because they look like they have such a tactile quality in the backgrounds. I love that. Great colors, too.
