Kelsey Proffitt is an emerging artist that didn't take the traditional path to art school and then full-time artist. She acquired some college level, formal art training but is mostly self-taught. She gained invaluable knowledge and experience for the last several years as a high school visual arts teacher. She realized that she wanted to spend more dedicated time in her own studio creating her complex observations of life and the human condition. So she decided to trust her talents and take a leap of faith. Before her life as an art teacher, she explored various other life paths, all eventually circling her back around to art each time. Art has always been an important part of her life since she was a child. Kelsey recently moved to the Houston area from Fort Worth, Texas. She is a travel enthusiast and loves meeting new people and experiencing new places. From 2013 to 2015, she lived overseas in Galway, Ireland. Before settling in Ireland, she backpacked around France, Italy and Switzerland. Kelsey likes to take in the culture, nature, and various other visual stimulation's and occasionally uses that as inspiration for her artwork. Kelsey has taught numerous art workshops for Mabank ISD's "Know Your Impact Conference" for the past 3 years. She also currently teaches various classes and helps manage the studio at Wine & Design in Kingwood, TX. She really enjoys sharing her knowledge and passions with others to help promote the arts. She is also a member of the Lake Houston Area Artist's league in her community. Kelsey likes to engage her supporters by creating video compilations of her while she’s working in her studio.
