Notes:
Mark Kellett was born in Fort Erie, Ontario. By 1985, he completed his studies at the Ontario College of Art. Major areas of study included various printmaking techniques, sculpture, working with paper, photography techniques and art theory and history. Earlier, Kellett attended Banff School of Fine Art and Photography. In 1986, he joined Open Studio, a cooperative printmaking studio in Toronto, where his main focus has been on abstract original serigraphy. With each monoprint or varied edition, Kellett explores the process of merging the physical laws of color theory with the mathematics of design to create a strong visual impact. According to Kellett: "My art has always been about the poetry of color and the expression of design. This new and unique method of producing direct from the screen 1/1 serigraphs has been especially intriguing. The layering of these fluid moments has added a new painterly quality to my work and opened the doors to endless possibilities.
