## Your Patronage Supports Kellie Jo Art

Thank you for visiting my patronage page! I’m [Kellie Jo Close](https://kelliejoart.com/bio/), a multidisciplinary artist weaving shadow and light through unique creations. My art ranges from the soul-healing [You-Do-You Voodoo™ art dolls](https://kelliejoart.com/portfolio/you-do-you-voodoo-art-dolls/) to evocative paintings and drawings, each piece born from a deep desire to inspire, connect, and heal.

Art is not just what I do—it’s the heartbeat of my life. It allows me to express emotions, foster connections, deal with my mental illnesses, and explore themes that resonate on a soul-deep level. Your patronage helps me continue creating meaningful works that speak to the heart.

I generated the the female patron, above left, with AI in Photoshop to complement the portrait of the Duke of Urbino, Federico da Montefeltro by Agnolo Bronzino (1503-1572), above right. The bottom digital image is called “Once Upon a Bloom’s Goodbye” and I created it in September 2024.
