Kelly Sullivan was taught to paint at an early age by her grandmother. She has remained committed to hercareer and is finally enjoying the success she hoped would come.

Through her production of a hands on arts festival in San Francisco, Kelly developed FingerSmears - largepaintings created under Kelly's direction using finger smears of hundreds of people on one canvas. They are generally created as commemorative pieces for large-scale events or as fundraisers for non-profit organizations. Kelly has had the pleasure of involving over forty thousand people in her work, including The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Carroll Burnett, Bill T. Jones, James Belushi, Willem Defoe, Todd Zeiele, Brooks Robinson, and Jason Giambi. Some of Kelly's clients include Mercedes Benz, Pepsi, Millsport, Genesco Sports, The San Francisco Business Arts Council, Dupont, Macys, and Neiman Marcus. Her traditional works have been autographed by BB King, Clarence Clemmons, Koko Taylor, John Lee Hooker, and Pete Seeger. Kellys works are an display in her studio at 605 Mattison, in Asbury Park.
