Kelly Mead has been involved in fine arts for a lifetime specializing until recently in watercolor. She has spent the last year and a half devoting her talents to portraiture in oil and now florals and boats. There has always been a New England style to her work with the tasteful use of bright yet natural color. Americana has always been an inspiration. Once a student of Enzo Russo, her talent has grown through a strong ground in the classical methods along with a continuing push into the adventures of contemporary art.
