Original paintings, garden florals and hand-painted keepsakes by Georgia artist Kay Stanley.
From detailed studies on canvas to loose pen-and-wash florals on little shaped canvases — every piece is an original, painted by hand.
Hand-painted hearts, circles and hexagons, made as magnets, keychains and bookmarks. Each one is signed and one of a kind.
About the artist
Kay Stanley is a Georgia native who lives and paints in Sharpsburg, just outside Newnan. She works in oils, acrylics, watercolor, pencil, and pen and ink, moving easily between detailed studies on canvas and loose, cheerful florals on small shaped canvases.
Kay was first asked to teach art at a local arts and crafts store, and she never stopped. For more than 30 years her classes have met at the Sharpsburg Recreation Center in Old Town Sharpsburg, and she spent nine years teaching homeschool students as well. Many of her students have gone on to exhibit their own work, and several have been named Artist of the Month by the Newnan-Coweta Art Association.
Her paintings have been shown at the Georgia State Capitol and the Newnan-Coweta Centre for the Performing and Visual Arts, and one hung in a congressional office in Washington, D.C. She designed the logo for the Coweta County Courthouse Bicentennial and has won awards at the Third Congressional District Art Show, the NCAA Spring Show, the Manget Brannon Art Show and the Sharpsburg Art Show. Kay is a member of the Newnan-Coweta Art Association.
