an observation and analysis of visual impact.

Kathleen Kelly’s art is an exploration of visual impact—analyzing how texture, color, detail, and composition shape space and perception. Her process begins with handcrafted collages made from diverse materials including pen, paint, ink, newsprint, photography, and scanned elements. These collages establish the composition and stand as complete works in their own right, before being digitized and reimagined through her distinctive digital practice. The result is large-scale Artscapes that burst with color, energy, and depth—immersive worlds that transform the two-dimensional surface into vibrant experiences.
