|  | Kelly Hogan is an emerging artist whose vibrant paintings 
 celebrate a love of fashion and costume in portraiture.
 
 Through her signature “cropped” portraits, Hogan’s art 
 speaks to the ability of dress to articulate a sense of 
 self to the world. Her playful close observations also 
 invite the viewer to appreciate the visual intrigue of 
 clothing brought alive by the body.
 
 Hogan graduated from the Queensland College of 
 Art and Design last year, and recently completed a 
 studio residency with GC Creative Spaces on the Gold Coast. |
