Two new paintings

“Naked I came from my mother’s womb and naked I shall depart. The Lord giveth, and He has taketh away. May the name of the Lord be praised.” Job 1:22

People, friends, places, youth, family....it will go in and out of your life. It’s how it’s supposed to be. Life is ever changing. I haven’t started a new painting since my surgery three months ago. I felt lost for while. I’m feeling like me finally. And thank God-He gave my art. It saved me. Please reach out to me if you’re needed help with figuring out how to draw or paint. Creating art is a way for your soul to feel things you can’t quite pinpoint #art #arttherapy #healing #artprocess #painting #gallery #artoftheday #figuredrawing #figurativeart #portrait #laart #losangeles #longbeach #kelliethomaswalker #artcollector 

New Geisha Sketch

Starting another Geisha sketch. Detailing not started yet. #sketch #geisha #geishaart #art #artwork #artoftheday #arte #drawing #japan #gallery #artcollector #interiordesign #decor #artstudio #artprocess #kelliethomaswalker 

Sketched upside down (the paper-not me ha!). I finally figured out why I do that, maybe if I would have gone to art school they would have told me. I do it to capture essence and not focus on form. A form of expressionism I suppose. #femaleartist #figurativeart #drawing #art #contemporaryart #modernart #sketchoftheday #gallery #greyscale #interiordesign #decor #artcollector #femaleform #abstractart #essence #artistsoninstagram #losangeles #laart

Rough sketch on my large pad #sketch #drawing #figurativeart #charcoaldrawing #art #modernart #interiordesign #contemporaryart #kelliethomaswalker #gallery #artcollector #artexhibition #artla 

Finished my 4ft horse “Sahara”. Once I varnish it all those  transparent layers will be so much more vivid. Second to last of my WRECKED series.#art #painting #gallery #equine #equineart #horseart #horse #largeart #artist #artstudio #losangelesart #longbeachart #WRECKED #kelliethomaswalker #modernart #contemporaryart #artoftheday #artcollector 

A sketch of my Grandma (when she was young, sitting on the beach) I gave my mom for her birthday yesterday. Gram passed away last year, day after my mom’s birthday.

When I sketch figurative nude I don’t look at it as a naked body. I see strength and I see weakness . I’ve been through quite the adjustment trying to get back to normal after my hysterectomy. I respect my body so much more. Love yourself not for what you see, but what resides in you. #figuredrawing #abstractfigurative #woman #hysterectomyrecovery #strongwomen #itsjustabody #selfcare #art #sketch #charcoal #artist #abstractart #artgallery #selflove #interiordesign #decor #female 

5th day post Op, (Total hysterectomy) can’t paint because of my abdominal wall. I’m bored. So want recovery to be done. Sketching one of my favorites, my go-to when I don’t feel inspiration striking me. #jackskellington #nightmarebeforechristmas #october #hysterectomyrecovery #hysterectomy #fall #sketch #artist #fibroids #art #endometriosis #interiordesign #decor #artcollector #halloween #bored #illustration #artoftheday 

Golden Koi

My Golden Koi. Transparent gel/neon paint ratio 2:1 to create a pure depth. 40x30 in size can fit pretty much any wall .

Love what I do

I am loving painting him. With all of my heart. When I truly fall in love with a piece it manifests on the canvas. I’ve been on a roll with my writing as well. Not only am I writing my memoir, (which is in conjunction with my Fire Series) I also started a fiction novel, and a children’s book.

Realized I messed the position of his eyes. Black out-and re Do of his eyes. After they dry I’ll make his eyes look LESS like a White Walker #art #artprogress #horse #horseart #equestrian #abstractfigurative #interiordesign #losangeles #longbeach #painting #artstudio #horsehead #kelliethomaswalker #artsy #palletknife #brushwork #artofinstagram
