Ep 138 Kelli May Krenz on Creating a Lifetime of Creativity

Kelli May-Krenz joins Dionne Woods on the Paint Talks Podcast today. Ever since she was a little girl, she's loved to create, draw, paint and stitch, and knew she would be a graphic designer. Since graduating from Iowa State University with a degree in Fine Art and Graphic Design, Kelli has lived and worked in Dallas, Minneapolis, and Siesta Key, Florida, with clients from all over the world. She now lives in Galena, Illinois with her husband and muse - their Jack Russell Terrier named Pearl Button. For Kelli, creating is like breathing - she simply does it. Her mission is to continue making art that reflects her core belief - that all great things are possible. Kelli May-Krenz is an award-winning graphic designer and illustrator with more than 30 years of experience. Her ability to capture, express, and visually communicate the needs and visions of her clients has produced designs and promotional materials for everything from independent boutiques to Fortune 500 companies. Her stationery line, Pearl Button's World, debuted at the National Stationery Show - where two of her designs were selected as finalists for Best in Show. She has worked with some amazing clients including the American Heart Association, Bauer Publishing, Carnival Cruise Line, Dress Barn, Estee Lauder, General Mills Corp., JCPenney, Liz Claiborne, L'Oréal, Macy's, Neiman Marcus, Papyrus, Relevant Products, Target, The Children's Place, Wall Street Journal and more!
