Kelly has traveled throughout the United States, Europe, North Africa, the Near East, and Nepal. His work often incorporates unusual materials from his journeys, among them vintage posters and printed antique paper, obscured and layered in saturated pigments on a canvas faintly scored with irregular grids. Kelly’s paintings have been likened to palimpsests and his method described as one of building “meticulously on inhabited ground, layering materials, documents, and signs, covering them, wiping out their beauty, nearly, but allowing something of the labor and their languages to persist.” Kelly worked as a commercial photographer for Polaroid in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and completed residencies at The MacDowell Colony and The Karolyi Foundation, Vence, France, before devoting himself entirely to painting in 1982. His work has been the subject of more than forty-five solo shows at venues in North America and Europe, including Spazio Bianco/AR Contemporary Art, Milan, Italy; Leslie Feely Fine Art, New York; and The John Berggruen Gallery, San Francisco, California.

Lorna Marsh (1949-2022) Acrylic on Paper (mixed media) Hand signed and dated Chairs, Table, and Figure 2015 Original masterpiece by Lorna Marsh. Created with acrylic and ink wash on paper, this dynamic piece is a testament to Marsh's distinctive artistic vision. Lorna Marsh (1949-2022) was a pioneering artist from Cape Town, South Africa, renowned as one of the foremost female artists of her era. Influenced by her studies at the Royal Academy and the Art Institute in Chicago, Marsh's work reflects a blend of global perspectives. Her art, inspired by German Expressionism and Surrealism, explores themes of the human-animal relationship and nature through intricate lines and textured surfaces. Marsh's exhibitions spanned South America, Spain, the USA, and South Africa, with her pieces showcased in corporate and private collections worldwide. Lorna Marsh was born in Cape Town, South Africa (1949-2022). Lorna Marsh is considered one of the most innovative female artists of our time. Her early art instruction included courses with visiting professors from the Royal Academy and she also attended the Art Institute in Chicago. Marsh’s work is most closely aligned with German Expressionism and Surrealism. She has a love of line, which can be seen, in almost all her work. The surfaces are complex, often applied directly by hand, using a wide variety of media. Having lived on three continents, her work has been shaped by many influences, but primarily by the human condition, animals, cartoons, which is the focus of many of her paintings. Her figures sometimes depict man’s interaction with the animal world and nature in illuminating ways. Marsh's master work often conveys dysfunctional humans with images of Africa’s large predators animals - underscoring the contrast between the dignity of nature and the self-destructive nature of man - A statement also that opposes Disney’s charming animal characters and idealistic story telling. Lorna's work also was known for never relying on repetition - each one of her series were new and distinct. Lorna Marsh presence, like her canvases, was larger than life. In her youth she was a stage actress and model. Lorna Marsh was a keen thinker and delighted in testing boundaries, which she reflected in her art. Internationally celebrated, her works were often confrontational and explored such themes as mankind’s destructive relationship with nature. Initially, Marsh was exposed to traditional master painters of the English landscape, Constable and Gainesborough. . While Marsh's artistic vision may be grounded in her classical training and her esteem for twentieth century visionaries, she has evolved a unique style that transcends standard interpretative mechanisms. Marsh appeals to the universal language of human beings. Marsh's figurative expressionist style, with its roots in German Expressionist art and European Surrealist art, is also informed by the work of Robert Motherwell, Cy Twombly, and Antonio Tapies. Her work​ blends symbolism, surrealism, and expressionism to create fresh images, which reflect upon the human condition. Her images are timeless.In much of her work, such as in the Eve series, the human face appears partially or even fully expunged, heightening the sense of universality through the body. The female nudes exhibit interior anguish and turmoil and display the enormous toll of their difficult struggle. Each figure is distorted for peak emotional impact and dramatic effect. The extraordinary animal paintings, largely drawn from her native South Africa, are imbued with a hallucinatory intensity and ferocity. She convincingly conveys the tension of movement and countermovement of African herd...
