BiographyArt and horticulture are Kellie’s passions. As a young girl tending the family garden through her time at the University of Delaware acquiring a dual degree in landscape horticulture and plant science, art and nature remain an ever-present inspiration. She values the botanical diversity surrounding us and has always sought a means to share her enthusiasm.
Botanicals, both in their simplicity and complexity, provide an endless supply of subjects to paint and learn from. As time passed and Kellie’s passions evolved, she sought larger physical areas to paint and expand upon. She envisioned entire walls exploding with colorful and bold botanical art on most every building she passed. Kellie started somewhat small - traffic signal boxes. Over time she created large-scale botanical murals, many of which share the attention and appreciation of those living in Ithaca, New York.
With her growing love for plants and art, she moved down to Washington, D.C. to pursue a career in historic gardening and art. She currently works as the Director of Buildings, Gardens and Grounds at Tudor Place Historic House and Gardens, a beautiful 5.5 acre historic garden located in Georgetown. Kellie works to continue the preservation and restoration of the 200 year old gardens and house, while pursuing her other love of art through garden art classes and mural installations throughout the city.
