Kelly Peters: A Journey from Mountain Dreams to Artistic Collaborations
The mountain are calling and she must go – or paint, as is the case with Kelly Peters.
Kelly is a visionary whose heartfelt creations speak volumes of her profound connection with nature and art – and we couldn’t be more thrilled to feature her prints at Geometry! Her abstract, natural vibe speaks to us, and that’s why we wanted to speak to her about what makes her creative juices flow.
From Dream to Reality: The Artist's Path
Born in the suburbs of Detroit, Kelly long dreamed of mountain life, even as she nurtured her artistic pursuits from a young age. Her childhood was filled with doodles and a deep admiration for the world of painting. After attending art school, Kelly's quest for a season of ski bum life in Colorado transformed into a permanent residence, giving rise to her thriving art business based in Aspen.
Daily Inspirations and Creative Process
Kelly finds inspiration not merely in daily activities but in her overall approach to life. Her creative process is a meticulously organized chaos where every item, although seemingly misplaced, has a purpose. She often starts her artwork on the ground, moving pieces to the wall as layers and details accumulate. Working on multiple pieces simultaneously, Kelly keeps her creative energies flowing, ensuring that she never gets bogged down by any single creation.
Motivation and Influences
Despite the challenges that often beset creative minds, Kelly's inherent drive to create keeps her going. Her late mother, who was her biggest supporter, plays a continuous role in her motivation. Her encouragement still urges Kelly to pursue her passion relentlessly as a tribute to her memory.
Aesthetic and Inspirational Fusion
Describing her style as a blend of industrial and earthy, Kelly dreams of one day having a modern studio nestled in the woods. Her collaboration with Geometry House is fueled by her affinity for our meticulous attention to detail and the quality of sustainable materials. For this collection, Kelly drew inspiration from earth tones and the liberating sensations of natural environments, aiming to capture the abstract elements of her landscape paintings.
The Geometry Collaboration
The collection is a perfect example of what happens when art meets sustainable innovation; it embodies abstract snippets of her landscape art, offering a tactile expression of her visual style. This collaboration not only highlights Kelly's unique artistic voice but also aligns with her values of sustainability and creative excellence.
