Artist Interview: Kevin P. Kelly

Words of the day: drawing. ubiquitous. immortalize. conflict.

Wichita, KS based painter, Kevin P. Kelly shares his thoughts and working methods used in his Sketch Of the Day project. Irony, humor, and tension are just a few elements considered when picking objects to paint for Kevin in this series.
