Hilary Kelley

I grew up in the mountains, on a lake, and in the woods, surrounded by dogs and (sometimes) horses. I started my illustration business in 2016, getting into people's heads and pulling out the visions and imagery that make up the greater portion of my body of work. I'm self-taught in that I've never had any formal training, but over the years I've found myself surrounded by many influential and talented people who have given me support, advice, and new ways to learn.

 

I'm infatuated with neurology and behavioral science, and often fold these themes into my paintings. I usually begin at the point between thought and decision, where we find stillness. I'm not fond of uncertainty so I try to make it my friend. I'm really into stories.

I live in Atlanta with my very cool husband Kyle and our three cats.
