In 2019, Kelly saw a giraffe print online but the store was sold out when she went to buy it. On her way home that day,she stopped by the craft store and bought paint supplies hoping that her husband would paint something similar for her. She grew impatient after waiting a couple of weeks and took it upon herself to give it a go. Kelly’s very first painting was of a giraffe on 36" x 36" stretched canvas using a color block technique. She calls it Georgia. Kelly posted Georgia on Instagram and it immediately attracted a new owner. Kelly enjoyed the process of painting so much that she began painting and posting every week.With over 200 paintings sold, Kelly has discovered a true passion for art.
In November 2023, Kelly took a leap of faith and quit her 9-5 career as an Operations Business Manager to pursue a career doing what she loves, creating. She decided to combine her 20 year career in HR, Quality Management and Leadership with her love for painting to launch Pinkjean Art Agency which specializes in art and creative services. Kelly realized through her business roles that an organization is only as good as its teams. Synergy is key to a high function team. Kelly has made it her life's passion to help teams and organizations across the globe grow closer and wiser through her creative team building activities.
