Kelsey Worth

Kelsey Worth portrays vibrant flora and fauna using water-based mixed media. Inspired by close-viewed subjects and expressive paint techniques, she melds traditional art fundamentals and modern abstraction. Worth’s work captures nature’s inherent movement and rhythm using sweeping brush strokes and dynamic compositions. Her work embraces colorful timeless subjects while pushing the boundaries of realism.

After receiving a dual Bachelors degree in Music and Studio Art, Worth continued studying music at the University of Redlands in Southern California, eventually earning a Masters Degree in Saxophone Performance. Her Senior art project earned University of Redlands Departmental Honors as she graduated Summa Cum Laude. May 2017 Worth joined the United States Marine Corps and completed active duty in April 2021, earning distinction as an accomplished Marine, musician, and visual artist.
