Kelly Chehardy
Doll Maker
Kelly Chehardy earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Louisiana in 2009, with a concentration in time-based media. In her final years of study, she developed a deep interest in sculpture and ceramics, which sparked an ongoing exploration. After graduating, she began to merge her lifelong fascination with dolls and costume making into her sculptural work, creating distinctive pieces rich in detail and character. For over 15 years, Kelly has been producing and selling her artwork to collectors around the world, continually evolving her practice through experimentation and imaginative expression.
