Hi there! My name is Kelly Friend.

I studied Fine Arts at Hamline University in Minnesota.

I live in sunny Florida with my three teenage kids and our ferret – Phoebe.

I am an the Art teacher at our local school . I also use my artistic skills outside of school. I’m an artist pretty much all day. I continue to learn different techniques and never cease to be amazed at what the world of art has to offer.

Besides being an artist and a mom to three amazing kids, I like to chaperone on our school field trips, learn how to use new mediums for my work and bringing out the talent of others through teaching them new art skills.
