Hi, I'm Kally. 

​​

Artist from Rhode Island, tiny house enthusiast, community garden founder, avid birdwatcher, 3-time marathoner, possible future author, armchair historian, always in the market for new hobbies, perpetually a work in progress.

I have never met an artistic discipline I didn't want to wrestle into submission. If it's creative, I will want to try it, including but not limited to pen and ink, charcoal, watercolors, acrylics, photography, writing, graphic design, surface pattern design, knitting, crocheting, sewing, embroidery, cooking and baking, and wood carving.

My current main obsession is thread painting, a style of extremely detailed, photorealistic embroidery. If you hold still long enough, I will tell you about it. Sorry, can't be helped. When I learned to thread paint, it felt like I unlocked a section of my brain that was gathering cobwebs, waiting to be used. It was always there. I just had to stumble upon it.

During the week, I can be found in my tiny office, doing the job that pays the bills. On the weekends, I can be found in the woods, stalking warblers, in the garden with dirt under my fingernails, or making something.
