A poet, artist, photographer and so much more...
Hello Lovely
I am Kelly, a poet and artist living in Carmarthenshire, Wales UK. I am originally from Essex but my husband and I made the big move to South Wales in 2014. We have two kind and caring children and two happy dogs, who you may hear barking in my videos. As well as running my creative business I am also a full time carer to my disabled son.
I found poetry whilst struggling with my mental health back in 2018. There were days where I didn't think I would make it to the end of the day but writing helped me. I would write poems of things I needed to hear. After I started sharing them on social media I realised I wasn't alone in what I was feeling and the amazing thing was my poems helped others as much as they helped me. My poetry has been read by millions of people around the world and is even in the homes of a few well known celebrities. My biggest achievement with my work will always be knowing that my poems have saved lives, have brought people out of the darkness and back into the light.
I have always loved sketching but only found my true love for art in the year 2023. I loved sketching with ink but unfortunately my hands didn't so I had to give that up and that is when I found painting using acrylics and decoupaging. I love painting things that match my mind, the chaos and thunderous thoughts. I love adding real gold to represent hope, the light I look for when lost in a swirling mind of anxiety and despair. I now combine my poetry and art together to create a beautiful mix that spreads hope. I recently started a Poetry Pal subscription which I hope to build to spread positivity around the world through art and poetry.
My big dream is to run a coffee and art shop alongside my husband. To hold creative workshops that help others through their mental health struggles. I dream of filling homes with my work and bringing joy through paint and words. I love writing poetry for businesses, creating rhymes that match their branding and have a few big brands I dream of working with. I have also recently took up photography again as I want to help women feel empowered through my Goddess photoshoots.
Thank you for being a part of this journey with me, it is a rollercoaster of a ride but so worth it.

I gift myself my poetry pal print each month and look forward receiving my beautiful surprise. Kelly makes beautiful art and has a way with words that really speaks to me and I’m enjoying building my collection!
The print arrived and I was pleasantly surprised to find there were individual touches on it, making it even more special, the poem was lovely too, I can’t wait for the next one
Thank you so much for my order I absolutely love my pebble pals. They are so lovely to hold and very grounding for me. Sending lots of love to teddy 🐕 and the family xx
Absolutely beautiful painting & Words. I now have to try and find a place to put it so that I can see and read it everyday. I really love Kelly’s work.
Today I received it. It was nicely wrapped. When I opened my package the painting was even more beautiful than the images could show online. And on the images online it was allready amazing. I loved it soooo much and it made me soooo happy that I went straight back to the shop to look if there were still some other beautiful paintings waiting for a home. And it was my really lucky day. Paintings I also loved when they were posted online were still available and, double lucky, on sale. So there are now more 'friends' on the way. I'm looking forward to give them a new home with me.
I love the combination of the beautiful poem and the beautiful painting. The gold touch of hope makes it extra special. It gives comfort, support, joy and it is sooo amazingly beautiful.
I bought one last year which really helped me on a journey to Australia (I am a bit of a nervous flier, and hate taking off and landing). I have just purchased 2 more for a very good friend and her daughter who both suffer from anxiety - I hope to pass them on them very soon.
Bought to pass on to someone and now I want my own, lovely self care and self supporting prompts
I have two of Kelly's wonderful miniture paintings in lovely box frames. Both are of flower scenes. One with a gorgeous blue background the other with a dramatic orange backgound. I love them, they cheer me up when i look at them. Very talented lady, thank you Kelly x
I purchased a little pouch of these beautifully designed poems for a family member who suffers from awful anxiety. She adores them and she has told me that these words lift her up whenever she feels anxious. She keeps them in her pocket and never goes anywhere without them now. Thank you for your incredible creations which genuinely help so many others. I will be buying more in the future and I highly recommend them to all.
I have bought many of the poems, not only for myself but for church friends and others who suffer from Anxiety. Everyone has found them comforting and helpful. Thank you Kelly.
