Kelly Foss, "You're the One that I Want" - El Paso, TX


Born on 1985 on the coast of Georgia, Kelly grew up in New Mexico and Vermont, and now calls El Paso home. Due to her father's work with the goverment, the family had great opportunities to move around, exposing her to different cultures, communities and characters. As a self-taught specializing in portraiture, she has had a one-woman art show at the Lincoln Center, and has shown yearly with the Mexican Consulate's "Mujeres Sin Fronteras" exhibit. Kelly shows continually at the at the Hal Marcus Gallery (where she has worked since 2005). Her painting of Pancho Villa (from her Mex. Revolution Series) appears on the cover of a Mexican History Book. Numerous private collections contain Kelly Foss' art; over 9 US States and also in Japan.
