Kelsey Renko 'Juicy'
Juicy, 2020, 9 x11 inches, acrylic and marker on paper.
Artist Statement
My paintings are celebrations of everyday moments and memories. I capture them in thick paint and wobbly lines. I obsessively layer, cover-up, and scratch away the surface. My paintings can feel humorous, angry, or sappy and I hope, relatable.
