Kelly Childress

Kelly Childress is a self taught glass and resin artist residing in Missouri with her husband and 4 children and 5 grandchildren.

Kelly’s artwork is a mixture of broken glass and resin. She upcycles alot material from her husbands glass shop and incorporates them into her artwork. Anything from windshield’s, commercial doors and windows. She loves scouring second hand stores and antique stores for that perfect color of glass to add to a piece of art. Kelly’s use of alcohol ink, mica powder and acrylic paints in her resin allow her to create depth and dimension in her pieces. Creating movement and atmospheric imagery. Her up cycling of materials is a way of taking something broken and turning it into a beautiful piece of artwork for the viewer to enjoy.
