Carly Rae Studios

Many Kansas Citians have hopped on the bandwagon of filling their home with Kansas City-themed decor and wearing Kansas City apparel. Carly from Carly Rae Studios is one of the amazing local artists whose work can be found all over the city and in many homes.  Carly Rae Studios specializes in creating art that invites people take a closer look and be able to see the smaller pieces that make up the whole. Carly's artwork is detailed and whimsical, often made up of tiny flowers. She is inspired by color, patterns, Kansas City, sports, and nature: flowers, the ocean, the forest, the sky, animals, sunshine, palm trees and seashells.  Each floral painting starts with a pencil outline of a shape and is slowly filled in with tiny watercolor flowers. Her favorite part of painting is the process; focusing on a piece for an hour or two and forgetting about everything else around her (sometimes to a fault) and being fully present in that creative space. Carly's art started on textured art paper has grown into apparel, key chains, hats, greeting cards, totes, mugs and more! You can find her products in Made In KC locations, additional local retailers and on her website, https://www.carlyraestudio.com/ .
