2010 Louisville, Kentucky art for KY Derby

Louisville, Kentucky art I am thrilled to announce that I had the honor of working with the Louisville Hyatt Regency again this year to create a special commemorative drawing for the 2010 Kentucky Derby festivities. 500 signed and numbered limited edition prints were made of this drawing, and will be special gifts to the Hyatt’s derby weekend guests.

The Hyatt staff saw the “Canton Lives” drawing on this website (see below), and requested that special landmarks in Louisville be included in the drawing. The artwork features the Kennedy Bridge, the Slugger Museum, Belle of Louisville, Churchill Downs and a map of Kentucky.

Stark County Ohio Landmarks Pencil Drawing: “Canton Lives”

My recent Pencil Drawing, “Canton Lives” features many well known Canton landmarks: The Football Hall of Fame, the Palace Theater, The Courthouse Tower, The McKinley Monument and the Canton Art Museum. This artwork was created partly in response to a Forbes Magazine article which placed my hometown on the Ten Fastest Dying Cities List. Needless to say, many of us who live and work here disagree with that!

My editorial on this subject was published in the Canton Repository on February 24, 2010: Canton ‘Miserable’? Some Beg to Differ.

Open Edition prints of this image are available in two sizes. Click here for the Canton, Ohio Art Prints.

This image is also now available on products in my CafePress store! Check out Canton, Ohio mugs, Canton, OH mouspads, Canton Sigg Bottles, Coasters, Calendars, Magnets and more!

Kelli’s Horse Racing Pencil Drawing Featured in the 2009 Kentucky Derby Celebration!

My equine artwork is now a part of Kentucky Derby history! This year the Louisville Hyatt Regency Hotel in Kentucky contacted me to order an exclusive line of 350 Derby-theme, limited edition prints. Each print was personally signed, numbered and titled. The prints were special commemorative gifts - given to guests of the Hyatt Regency on Derby weekend 2009.

I created the artwork, titled “Derby Dreams,” as a pencil drawing in my signature montage style. This layered drawing technique, combined with the classic look of black & white pencil drawing, makes my approach to horse artwork truly unique in the world of Equine Art. The original drawing was framed by the Hyatt and displayed in the lobby throughout the week of Derby events. The artwork now becomes part of the Hyatt’s permanent collection.

I am so very grateful to Karen Patsfield, Executive Administrative Assistant of the Hyatt Regency, for being so wonderful to work with. Karen’s organizational skills and management abilities made this large project a joyful process from start to finish. Guests of the Hyatt no doubt enjoy all of the attention to detail from such a fine staff!

I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Deb Simon Photography. Deb kindly allowed me to use some of her horse photography as partial reference material for this project. Thank you once again Deb!
