After completing a BFA with the Hartford Art School Chelsea joined the Grand Central Atelier community in 2018, where she continues to study. Pursuing in earnest a use and understanding of the tools of the classical tradition, her influences range from Jacopo Pontormo to Odilon Redon and Abbott Handerson Thayer. Globally recognized, Chelsea’s work hangs in collections throughout North America, Europe, Australia and Japan including the Stobart Foundation and The New Salem Museum and Academy of Fine Art. Originally from Scotland, Connecticut, she now lives and keeps studio in NYC.
