Kelly Warner

I am a multi-media artist drawn to exploration—layering paint, prints, textures, and marks to uncover unexpected visual relationships. My process is intuitive and open-ended, guided as much by discovery as by the final image. I work with acrylics, gel-plate printing, watercolors, stencils, and resist techniques, embracing a variety of materials and combining them fluidly. Many of my pieces feature underpainting text—intentional words or emotions that form the inspiration of each work. I’m drawn to giving materials a second life—recycling, reclaiming, and reinventing whenever I can.
