Meet the Artist!
Chelsi graduated from the Academy of Art University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in art history and has always held an appreciation for culturally inspired art.
Chelsi has rare neurological conditions which make both everyday activities and art making a challenge. She challenges herself to keep going like the artists who inspire her, while hoping to find her way to remission someday.
She has been cursed with unyielding ambition and has many hopes and dreams for where her art will lead. She has been selling her art since she was able to put pencil to paper. Her first customers were her mom’s coworkers and other kids in school. She was caught many times selling handmade art during recess. From there she began doing craft shows selling mostly hand knitted and sewn things. Now she mostly sells her art at conventions, at local shops, and online.
Follow her on instagram @inky.creatures to stay up to date on what she’s working on.
Chelsi’s Frida Kahlo drawing was featured in a publication by the Brooklyn Art Library.
