KAA GUEST ARTIST
Shelley Feeney
Shelley lives in Fishers with her husband and three daughters. She teaches art at Fall Creek Junior High. Art has always been a big part of Shelley’s life. As a child, she enjoyed painting and drawing at a young age. Her high school art teacher fostered her creativity and inspired her to go into art education. She loves working with children and helping them discover what the arts have to offer.
Shelley captures the raw beauty of natural objects and landscapes from different perspectives. She exaggerates the use of color, light and texture through the layering of paint. These bold patterns and lines created by the impasto of the paint creates a visual movement that easily take you in and out of her paintings.
Shelley received a Lilly Grant in 2021 to study the art of finger painting! She was able to travel the Spanish countryside for three weeks while taking in local art, architecture, culture, language, food and Spanish wine! She is looking forward to showcasing her new pieces in 2024 at Penrod Arts Fair, Talbot Street Art Fair, Four Day Ray Brewing, and other various art festivals around Central Indiana.
She majored in art education at Indiana University and received her master’s in education at Anderson University. Her main studio focus in college was printmaking. It was not until after college that she started painting in her spare time. Shelley continues to paint with her newly discovered techniques in her home studio.
