About me

Hi there, I'm Kelsey Todd, a 26-year-old artist from Ayrshire, Scotland. I dedicated five years of my life to studying fine art and design at Ayrshire College, graduating in 2018. In my final year, I delved into underwater art, which has become my passion. This theme connects with me on a deeper level due to my love for swimming, allowing me to combine my interests seamlessly.

To gather inspiration for my pieces, I use a unique method. I film myself underwater and then extract frames from the footage by taking screenshots. This approach helps me accurately capture the beauty of water ripples and achieve the desired look in my artwork.

After graduating from college, I have actively participated in numerous exhibitions across Ayrshire.  I'm proud to say that I won the 'Young Artist of the Year' award two years in a row at the 'North Ayrshire Open Art Exhibition' in 2018 and 2019.

In addition to participating in exhibitions, I also conduct art demonstrations upon request, primarily in local art clubs around Ayrshire. I love doing these demos as it gives me the opportunity to meet and have a chat with fellow artists.

In 2023 My painting 'Aero Bubbles' got chosen to be the cover for a book from Amsterdam. The book is titled "Tussen Huids," which translates to "in-between skins."
