KELLY LOTTAHALL
Cluster Exhibitor | Cluster Contemporary | 2022
Kelly Lottahall is a fabric scrap and illustration artist who studied at Virginia Commonwealth University and achieved at BA in Fashion Merchandising who prides herself in the textures she creates, the 3D-effect it illuminates, and how pieces come to life and take the viewer to moments in time.
With the gift of drawing her entire life, but learned illustration only a few years ago, it felt natural from the start.
With focusing on illustrating life, women, and fashion it’s become only natural for Kelly to incorporate her other loves of recycled or recyclable goods, pre-loved fabric and scraps into her drawings.
She finds passion in trying new ideas, challenging herself regularly, and finds inspiration in everyday life. A perfect day for Kelly is looking through photography, influencers, and anything else she can get her hands on to bring out her creative gifts.

“Every day, month, year that has passed since I began my art form, I have constantly learned just how much I can really do, and the incredible amount of things and life that inspires me. Also I’m constantly learning the parts of my past, present and future that make me who I am at this very moment. This has allowed room for my art to evolve into what it is now.”
“It took a lot of courage for me to pursue art in any way, shape, or form. I’ve always been a creative person at heart, but never felt led to attempt this specific career path. Several years ago, I was in a situation that left me no choice but to, at least, try. Along my journey, I was awoken to who I was, a re-introduction, to say the least. ”
“The balance and what this path has done for my peace of mind is invaluable, and I’m deeply looking forward to what is ahead of me.”
