Shirley Kaci is a prolific artist. Over the years her work has graced the walls and shelves of offices and has been exhibited at various galleries around the UK. With over 30 years experience she has built up a vast collection of paintings including limited and open edition prints. Her artwork is a crossover between a painting style and textile style. Bold, fun, bright, spontaneous expressive florals for those who like to infuse colour into their interior palate and a more monochromatic type feel in her fine detailed quirky sketches, often embellished with soft gold/silver or both. Easy on the eye, portraying quirky illustrations of faces forms and felines. A meeting of minds, imagination and reality. As well as what is on display and for sale here, you can see for yourself by visiting her fashion, homeware and accessories brand at Kaci Kit.
