Anna T. Kelly was born in China. As a small child she was captivated by the effects of light and color, refraction and reflection on the beautiful island of Taiwan, where she grew up. For as long as she can remember she was attracted by the visual arts.
Anna’s interest in Art drew her to Taiwan’s textile industry.
In college she studied art and design and received her Bachelor of Science degree in textile engineering. After graduating she worked in fabric design and began training in fine arts in the studios of Professor J.Y. Chen and Professor Lee Teh.
She also learned Chinese painting under the guidance of Professor H.N. Au.
Anna is a member of the California Art Club, the Pasadena Society of Artists and Women Painters West.
Anna’s sensitivity to color and her unusual and emotive subjects give her paintings a special character that makes them very attractive to collectors. She has said “I consider myself a portraitist, not only of people, but of daily life. I try to paint what I love in order to share my affection with those who view my art.”
