Whimsical Paintings by Escondido, California based artist Kelly Vivanco. Inspired from the natural and imagined world, vintage photographs, children’s literature and the oddness of her dreams, Kelly Vivanco embraces the whimsical, and gently subverts our expectations of habitual narratives, objects, and characters, through a dreamy and playful web of associative free encounters.
Vivanco’s dynamic combinations of ambiguously ageless characters, often betraying precocious moods, and Kenneth Grahame like animal creatures, lead us into a world beyond the confines of adult disenchantment. Vivanco’s world is lovely and strange, offering a host of alluring characters, creatures, and animal friends.
