Kelli Greentree

Host artist at 2) Art by Kelli / Plushzilla

Born and raised in and around Milwaukee, WI, Kelli graduated from UW-Milwaukee with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in both Painting and Metalsmithing. After completing school she worked at the Milwaukee Art Museum for thirteen years as an Art Preparator/Gallery Technician. This was a fine job, but not the life-long calling she had been searching for.

Mentally ready to take the plunge, Kelli became a full-time professional Artist in 2014. Oil painting has become her main passion, creating colorful illustrative landscapes. She is inspired by nature and the great outdoors, and hope her work conveys the feelings of inspiration, peace, and rejuvenation to those who take a moment to view it. It's a way to remind the viewer (and herself) that every day is a new day, a new start, a new beginning, and a new chance to live your best life. You can find her selling her artwork at art fairs throughout in Wisconsin and online.
