Odessa Kelley is a native Floridian who travels extensively in the US in search of her artistic subjects. She is an award-winning Wildlife and Gyotaku Artist, skilled in a variety of mediums, which include acrylic and oil on canvas, soft pastels, colored pencil and graphite. She has been honing her skills as an amateur nature photographer and uses her own photographs of wildlife for reference. Odessa's method of learning through books, online tutorials, trial and error, and life experience allows her to experiment with many different mediums and techniques. This is how she learned to create Gyotaku (fish rubbings). Her Gyotaku paintings combine the elements that she holds most dear: painting, nature, and science.
