about
Focused on capturing the bright, vivid details of everyday life, my work mostly pairs bold colors with tight cropping and hyper-close-ups. Fruits, drinks, and the messy beauty of a shared table are digitally hand-drawn and printed by me. The goal is to trigger a craving for a refreshing drink, a gathering, a good time with friends.
the purpose
hi, i’m kelly!
I’ve been an artist for as long as I can remember. The countless learn-to-draw books and colored pencil sets gave me the confidence to attend SUNY Plattsburgh and earn a BA in Graphic Design in 2020.
In 2022, I designed and printed custom wedding invitations at a paper company in Denver, Colorado. After living there for 2.5 years, I moved back to my hometown of Saranac Lake, New York where I started my own LLC.
Kelly Dalton Art LLC is something I dont think I could have achieved without the support of my friends and family. I am now selling in local shops, attending craft shows, and was the featured artist of a local art series for a month. All this while maintaining a full-time job as a designer/printer.
Today, Kelly Dalton Art brings together everything I love most: drawing, color, stationery, and friends. The use of vibrant palettes and thoughtful details should give you a sense of warmth, happiness and connection. I hope to brighten your day, even if for a fleeting moment.
