Should you make just what you know will sell or just what your heart wants to make? Or both? This question and many more flow through Kelcey Loomer's head as she paints for hours at her canvas. Working mostly with oils and prepared mixed media surfaces, on both large and small scales, she finds inspiration from everything to time in the woods and her kids to facing grief and a new favorite song put on repeat. She describes her process as "dreaming in real time" and as a type of meditative state that has been incredibly healing to her. Her hope is that those who go home with her paintings also feel free to find their own meaning and good feelings in her work. She reminds us to notice and gather up all the little and big things that light us up and that when matched with believing in ourselves and some dedication we'll be one step closer to where we want to be.
