Welcome!

My name is Kelsy Renee Schumacher and I have a passion for designing and creating mixed media art, in the Fraser Valley. The pieces I create, with a keen eye for detail, are inspired by my life experiences and surroundings. Born in Vancouver BC, I now reside in Chilliwack, BC, with my highschool sweetheart turned CFO and our four lively children.

My passion for design aids in how my
pieces will end up working in their collector’s space. I aim to capture my
creativity, by translating my abstract thoughts or visually appealing moments
into my contemporary mixed media artworks.

Each piece is fueled by love and passion for this art practice. Each paper clipping has evoked something in me and has been placed with intention. Colour combinations have been chosen with an eye to create unexpected thoughts of delight. From the smallest to the largest, they are sure to transform whatever space they occupy.

My inspiration comes from a variety of places. The natural scenic beauty of the Pacific Northwest, the rolling canola fields of Saskatchewan (where I lived for 3 years) and the city scapes of Calgary (where I also lived for about 3 years). My eyes are drawn to the smallest details of a flower to the overwhelming power of the mighty mountains that surround. I incorporate grounding earth tones into my pieces in order to bring tranquility and calm. In addition, my abstract thoughts and emotions are poured into the pieces, adding that human piece that collectors can relate to.

 What sets my artform apart from the rest is the way each piece is coloured into a story that reflects moments of joy, resilience and introspection. Whether it’s the depiction of spring blossoms symbolizing the abundance of life or black and white paper clippings representing the nostalgia, my art invites collectors to consider their own journey and find what lights their soul on fire.

 As a female contemporary artist, residing in Chilliwack BC, I aim to inspire and delight with my innovative artwork. Each design is a testament to my creativity, craftsmanship and dedication to my practice. Through my art, I invite you, to immerse yourself in a world of beauty, relatable stories and inspired connection, that will leave a lasting impression.

I adore the conversation surrounding art and the feelings it can evoke when one sinks into it. Thank you so much for being here and supporting this foundational element to my being.
