Kelly Allen





I have been a maker of objects and images for as long as I can remember. Obsessive creation keeps me going. Having recently completed my MFA in Drawing at Kendall College of Art and Design, my current focus has been on gouache and graphite drawings on paper. I find utmost joy in experimenting in all things, whether I am combining images in a drawing, making creatures out of sculpey clay, giving a buzz cut to my cats, or cooking enormous pots of soup. I revel in mysteries, oddities, beauty, and laughing as hard and often as I can. When I am not making art, I love to hike through the woods, scour people's garage sales, read, and watch nature/science documentaries.
