Artist Interview: Kelsey Brookes
Kelsey Brookes creates some truly magnificent art. In the interview we talk about San Diego, the colour pink, and the text seen in his paintings — among other things.
Tell me a little bit about yourself!
Surf, Paint, Eat, Sleep. Not necessarily in that order. Hangin out with friends, loving my girlfriend, sneaking onto the golf course by my house, taking mushrooms in the park, going to the Symphony, going to the Museums in Balboa park.
How’s San Diego treating you? What’s the art scene like there?
I love this place right now. I had no idea there was an art seen in San Diego until recently. Its small but going strong. Its also nice that LA is not too far away.
Are you always in the mood to paint, or does it come and go?
Definitely comes and goes. Its cyclical like most other things in life. But I have been really amazed with how well creativity can work if you force it and work hard at it. I always thought it was such an intangible thing that would just have its way with you and leave you when it wanted but you can control and force it sometimes.
