Gillian Ross Kelsey – Obituary

We are sad to bring you the news of the recent death of Gillian Ross Kelsey after a short illness.

Gillian was a long time member of the Lincolnshire Artist Society and served as Chair and Vice President. Born in Grimsby, Lincolnshire, Gillian studied at Camberwell Art School and later obtained an M.A. at Nottingham Trent University.

In her own words…

“I have been through many stages in the many years of my painting career, following my own route from figurative works towards abstract minimalism, where I continued to explore colour, shape and texture, styles and ideas.

I like to feel directly involved in the use of paint, using brushes and rollers in these paintings. I believe in allowing the paintings ‘freedom to paint themselves’ and ‘elicit a sense of surprise in me’ as they express themselves. I take it as far as I can and feel that expresses my way forward.”

My most recent exhibition ‘Are we there yet?’ sees landscape as a further starting point for creating something totally new in my studio, this gives further ideas for complex combinations of colour, light and hue. Materials and surfaces combine to interplay concentrating even more on the abstract elements of the paintings.

These compositions offer a glimpse of what I remember of those childhood memories with my parents and then with my own children when travelling to the seaside.
