Raised in the panhandle of Texas and southeastern Oklahoma, Kelli Folsom's love of creating art began as a young girl spending her free time drawing and copying other artist’s work on the floor of her childhood bedroom.

"I always found drawing to be a source of peace and joy. It was not merely an enjoyable activity, but a place inside of myself that I could go anytime as long as I had pencil and paper."
Kelli received her B.F.A. from Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts in 2011.In 2011 she was the recipient of the John F. and Anna Lee Stacey Scholarship through the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in in Oklahoma City. Kelli's passion for the old masters and the joy she takes from in depth life study strengthens her work as an emerging artist. Her greatest pleasure is being in the studio painting and sharing learning experiences with other artists.

Kelli's work is exhibited nationally and in private collections internationally.
