Why am I giving away free prints?

That's a great question ...

First, let me tell you why I create art. For me, art is an escape and place where I can relax and get lost in the places I paint. When I'm stressed, I can pick up my paintbrush and transport myself somewhere else. I love trying to capture the beauty of the places I travel and the things I see. In particular, I find that being out in nature brings me to a place of total peace and it always inspires me to paint.

Why I painted this colletion and what it means to me ...

The word solace means to find comfort or consollation from grief, distress or sadness. Over the past several years, I've gone through some challenging times on a personal level and through that, I've been drawn to paint nature scenes that for me, provide solace. As you can see from this collection, I've been particularly drawn to trees and water. Anytime I'm surrounded by trees or next to a serene body of water, I feel like everything in my body exhales and I am overcome with a profound sense of peace. I can let go of whatever is making me sad or stressing me out - there are no people or traffic, no loud noises and sounds ... you can close your eyes and hear all the sounds of nature - the water lapping, birds chirping, an animal scurrying in the brush. And there's actually science behind it - being out in nature lowers levels of your stress hormones ... and it's cheaper than therapy! In short, my paintings are places I want to be when I'm surrounded by the stresses of life.

But why give the prints away for free?

I've gotten this question a lot ... why give away anything for free? I'm going to be real - painting is the easy part, selling is not. I love sharing my art with other people and there's no greater thrill than someone loving my art so much that they want to buy a painting or a print and hang it in their home. The problem is, my circle is small and it's hard to get your art in the hands of other people that you know will love it as much as you do. So, that's where you come in! I'm willing to give away a high quality print (the same as I sell on my website) in the hopes that you love it so much that you'll continue to purchase my art and tell all of your family and friends. In other words, I need to cast my net wide! I see this as a win/win ... you get a piece of art that I loved creating and in return, you can help support me and my dream of being an artist.

If my Solace in Nature prints resonate with you, and you want to support my journey as an artist, here's how you claim your free print.

Below this note you'll see the five paintings in my Solace in Nature collection and you'll be able to pick your favorite to to receive a FREE 5X7 print. I can only offer one FREE art print per person. However, you'll also have the choice to upgrade to a larger size (or the full collection) and to purchase additional prints.

I want to be upfront and let you know that although the print is free, I am charging a small $5 shipping & handling charge to make sure it arrives to you in good condition and in a timely manner. Shipping and supplies are not cheap!

I'm also giving you a 100% satisfaction guarantee for your free 5X7 print...

I'm so sure that you'll love your free 5X7 print that I'm offering a full refund of your shipping & handling if you aren't satisfied for any reason (and you can keep the free print anyway or gift it to a loved one).

All you’d have to do is contact me directly using the details on your receipt and I’ll give you back every penny. Thankfully, that's never happened yet!

My true hope is that you’ll love what you receive, and this will be the beginning of a great relationship for years to come.

Thank you, and enjoy your print!

HAPPY CUSTOMERS!

PRINT FROM THE ITALY COLLECTION: THE COLUSSEUM

Beautiful work and imaginative use of colors. I love Shelley's interpretation of the Coliseum which triggers fond memories of my own trip to Rome.

~ David Dimiss, Medford MA

5 PRINT BUNDLE, ITALY COLLECTION

We needed to hang something above our bed and I didn't just want to buy a generic painting from Marshall's. I came upon Shelley's page, Shelley Kay Art, and loved her painting of the Colosseum in Rome. I saw she had a great deal on 5 of her Italian paintings, and since I've been there twice, I couldn't pass it up. 3 of the prints are hanging above the bed and look great. I'm so happy to support an artist friend.

~ Jonathan Kolar, Chicago IL

ORIGINAL SPAINTING FROM THE ITALY COLLECTION: THE COLUSSEUM

Everything about this painting is just magical. With the colors, to the shading, the painting is pleasing to look at. Fits perfectly in my room!

~ Steve Rice, Leed, SD

PAINTING: BOATS AT HARBOUR

Shelley's art is truly beautiful. Her use of color and technique come alive on the canvas! Her interpretation of the scene is akin to the Impressionists of the nineteenth and twentieth century, yet she has found a way to make the technique all her own. We adore her work and will certainly keep our eye out for more from this wonderful, talented artist!

~ Hank Lankford, Lone Wolf, OK

PAINTING: PUFFINS ON THE CLIFFS OF SCOTLAND

When I look at The Puffins in Scotland It stirs my senses, looking at the painting I’m drawn to sun dancing on the water. I smell the sea and feel the cool ocean breeze. I see the cliffs and I can feel the soft earth beneath my feet. I look at the Puffins and I feel curiosity and Joy. I’m transported.

~ Alan Sutherland, Santa Fe, NM

PAINTING: SAILING SERENE

It's a simple sailboat on a calm orange, peach, and salmon colored sea. But it stood out to me. What stands out to me with Shelley's work is her use of bold color. In simple land-, town-, or sea-scapes, there is often a small detail like a sailboat, a rowboat, or some other sign of peaceful life that tells me things are OK. Her pet portraits are beautiful captures of the fur baby's personality. I'm glad her art is in my home, and I look forward to adding to the collection.

~ Lee Walker, Houston, TX

PAINTING: WOMAN PLAYING THE GUITAR IN THE FOREST

Painting: Woman Playing Guitar in the Forest - Everything about this painting is just magical. With the colors, to the shading, the painting is pleasing to look at. Fits perfectly in my room!

Shelley Kay, Acrylic Artist

About Shelley

Shelley's been artistic and creative for as long as she can remember, whether it was making her own hand-painted t-shirts, painting murals on her walls growing up, decorating toy boxes, making decorative art for her family, or decorating cakes and cupcakes for friends.

For the last 25 years, her creative side has helped her build a successful business as a web designer and graphic designer (Web Crafters), giving her the freedom to pursue her passions, which include travel and painting. Shelley and her partner traveled full time before the pandemic, which allowed them to see more of the world and explore new places. And although Shelley has settled back into her hometown of Houston, TX, she continues to travel as much as possible.

You'll see her love of travel and nature (as well as animals) reflected in her paintings. Her happy place is getting lost in her creative brain for hours on end and she hopes that joy shines through in her paintings!

Shelley is pictured holding the original framed painting of Embrace (sold).
