John Kelly Art
American, 1840-1904
John Kelly was born in Bristol, UK, in 1965. His family emigrated to Australia later the same year and settled in the Melbourne suburb of Sunshine. In 1985, Kelly obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Arts Painting from RMIT, where he also completed his Masters of Arts in 1995. As a winner of the 1995 Anne & Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarship, he traveled to London to study as an Affiliate Student at the Slade School of Art from 1996–97. Kelly's interest in Australian history clashed with his idiosyncratic sense of humor and this collision created his early Dobell's Cows series (1992–1996) based on the work of the artist Sir William Dobell. Early indications of his work had broader resonance beyond Australia which influenced him greatly, and his thoughts for future international projects.

Cheviot in Winter (Country Landscape Painting of Hudson River in the Winter)
By John Kelly
Located in Hudson, NY
Impressionistic landscape painting of the Hudson River during the wintertime in tones of grey, white, slate, blue, dark brown and green
Oil on linen, 22 x 28 inches
John Kelly approaches the Hudson Valley landscape with the eye of an architect and the hand of an impressionist. With intense attention paid to form and light, Kelly nevertheless manages to abstract the landscape just slightly, breaking earth, sky, and atmosphere down to their most elemental qualities. In this painting, a body of water, solidified into ice, stretches toward a murky treeline. The painting is composed primarily in a palette of pale blue, gray, and pink, with white, dark green, and gray accents.
About the artist:
Hudson Valley based painter John Kelly received his education from the Art Institute of Boston and Buffalo State. He has been exhibiting around the northeastern United States since the 1970s.

Wire Road (Hudson Valley Landscape Painting of Country Road, Mountains & Sky)
By John Kelly
Located in Hudson, NY
Hudson Valley landscape painting of country road with Catskill Mountains and expansive blue sky.
Oil on linen, 26.5 x 34 inches
John Kelly approaches the Hudson Valley landscape with the eye of an architect and the hand of an impressionist. With intense attention paid to form and light, Kelly nevertheless manages to abstract the landscape just slightly, breaking earth, sky, and atmosphere down to their most elemental qualities. In this painting, an ochre field stretches toward a flat horizon, the brownish tint of the land suggesting a snowless winter day. The tumultuous white and gray clouds swarm overhead, anchored by the iconic blue outline of the Catskill Mountains.
