Kelly Harper Morehouse

A Newfoundlander by birth, and having lived in various places across Canada and the U.S., Kelly now lives with her family and many beloved critters on a farm in the rolling hills of rural Nova Scotia. It is here that she draws her inspiration, from the land, the people and the nature surrounding her. Her artistic practice leans towards realism while also exploring abstraction. Kelly attended NSCAD University in 2001 and returned in 2021 to complete her BFA and has been active in the arts community for many years. In 2011 she was a founding member of the Winding River Art Gallery, an artist run cooperative in Stewiacke NS.

When not at work in her garret, you might find her in the barn or the field, down by the stream or at the beach, often exploring with camera or sketchbook in hand.
