This is Where I Belong...
Here at Lorelie Kay Designs I offer a wide varity of art including Frozen Charlotte jewelry and art and many other types of mixed media and assemblage art creations. And like you they are all an original! First let me start by saying that I am the Queen of Typo's!! ! My brain is usually 10 steps ahead of where I am at any moment so I apologize in advance for typo's in my listings. I would rather be creating than proof-reading :-) In high school I got A's in art classes and actually got kicked OUT of typing class and sent to the Principles office! True story.
Now for the fun stuff... I think I came out of the womb with a vivid imagination! I was always making things for my parents and leaving them little gifts on their pillows. Even as a young child I was content to spend hours by myself and let my imagination go free! But I never felt I was "good enough" so I just kept my creating tucked away inside, only letting a few people see anything I did.
When I was in my late 30's I was diagnosed with arthritis. I was told that I would need both hips replaced by the time I was 50. I needed an outlet to get out of my head, so I started creating. At 42 came my first hip replacement. And then I started creating with a vengeance! I found a peace of mind in my art that I had never had. My body was telling me to slow down, so I left my demanding job as an antique mall owner and started Lorelie Kay Designs.
Now I feel so lucky to now be able to create my art full time. I have a two working studio spaces in my home and my dream studio in my backyard. My mission is to create original, one-of-kind art that makes people smile! I also feel it is important to create affordable pieces so everyone can own a piece of art that brings them joy. I often have people tell me my prices are too low but I strive to keep my prices affordable for most. I am a down-to-earth girl from Iowa. I price my art what I would pay for it. I create for the love of my art...
I really believe there is a reason things happen. I believe you end up right where you belong. I know if I was able to do many of the physical things I did before arthritis, I never would be here doing my art. And I know that this is right where I belong...
