Kelly Rossetti is a contemporary abstract and figurative painter working out of her studio in Bridgeport, CT. While primarily self-taught, she studied classical oil painting at a small Atelier in NYC where she credits getting her foundation and love of the figure. Kelly works in both acrylic and oil and often utilizes an array of mixed media to achieve depth, texture and marks.
Her non-objective abstract work nearly always begins with play. Either through loose mark making that starts to inject a sense of life force energy into the painting, or by beginning with bold brushworks filled with color, Kelly's work consistently returns to two fundamental elements: line and color.
