In this episode, I chat with Brett Kelley, an incredible artist whose gothic and Halloween-inspired work totally resonates with me. We talk about everything from his journey growing up with ADHD, to embracing his individuality through art, martial arts, and goth culture. Brett shares his unique experiences working in creative fields like stunt performing, makeup artistry, and how his love for spooky themes shaped his artistic style. We also bond over our shared love for heavy metal and alternative music, and Brett gives us a sneak peek into his upcoming projects, including his Surreal Estate series and enamel pins. It's a super fun, nostalgic, and inspiring conversation about embracing who you are and creating art that speaks to your soul!
