Kelly Rae Cunningham is an Artist and Interior Designer who brings her love of color and pattern to everything she creates. She loves to tell stories through Painting and Interiors.
After a 20+ year career as an abstract painter working with Homeowners, Interior Designers and Architects she was looking for a way to blend her work experiences in Painting, Fashion, and Landscape Design into one creative endeavor. As an Interior Designer Kelly Rae is excited to expand her colorful world of art, travel, and gardens to help clients showcase their histories in their homes. She always envisioned that her Paintings would expand beyond the canvas as her thirst for design and creativity is endless and transcends mediums. Kelly Rae lives in West Seattle, WA with Her Wife, seven year old Daughter, and Darling Springer Spaniel Barley. Her Art + Design Studio is in her backyard garden studio where her dog and kid get themselves into trouble. About The Paintings: Kelly Rae is a self taught painter, her work is grounded in experimentation and exploration. She takes a process driven approach to painting. She paints with many different mediums as they lend different qualities to the process. Her paintings employ layers of color, worked with palette knives and brushes, whimsical use of dot and line, energetic brush strokes. You’ll see abstraction that combines creative mark-making, and gestural application of bold colors (and always tiffany blue). She has been painting, exhibiting and filling walls of homes and commercial buildings for twenty plus years. Her work is part of private and corporate collections all over the US. “Her approach to art will dust you with permission to create anything you want, for no reason other than to make something beautiful” -Laura Lowery, premiere issue of the journal Lucia Kelly Rae Cunningham FOUNDER, ARTIST + CREATIVE DIRECTOR |
