Title is Arlo Looking Cloud. 17 1/4" by 17 3/4" framed. Ramon Kelley (Born 1939) is active/lives in Colorado, Wyoming. Ramon Kelley is known for Figure-nude, portrait, genre, views. Earning recognition as a young artist and continuing to grow professionally, Ramon Kelley, credits Russian artist Nicolai Fechin as a major influence on his strong figural painting. Kelley says "there is no more beautiful landscape in the world than that of the female figure" (Southwest Art 5/98). He spent four years in the Navy and then got a scholarship to the Colorado Institute of Art in Denver to train as an illustrator. But his favorite class was the life-drawing class taught by Charlie Dye, one of the founders of the Cowboy Artists of America. After the birth of his first child, he went to work as a catalog illustrator but continued painting at night. A gallery in Taos began carrying his work, and this exposure launched him as a fine artist. He is a resident of Denver, Colorado.
