ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

Collage artist Kelly Schaub lives and works in Rockport, Texas and is active in several local arts organizations. Self-taught and a livelong learner, Schaub began exploring mixed media collage in 2014 when she packed up all of her belongings in a vintage RV and began life on the road. In 2020, Schaub launched Collage-Lab.com, an online resource for collage artists. She was profiled in Kolaj Magazine’s World Collage Day Special Edition in 2019. She was honored with a purchase award from the Doug & Laurie Kanyer Art Collection, along with awards for mixed media collage from Art Center of Corpus Christi, Port Aransas Art Center, South Texas Art League, Victoria Art League, and Art Association of Corpus Christi. She was a Merit Artist at Rockport Center for the Arts in 2019. Additionally, Schaub was awarded a grant for The New Normal – Rockport initiative in 2020. In 2023, she had a solo exhibit at Art Center of Corpus Christi called Waxing Poetic: Collage & Encaustic. She has also self-published several collections of collage. She has curated international collage exhibits and her work is featured in the book, Collage Care: Transforming Emotions and Life Experiences with Collage, by Laurie Kanyer, MA. Lately, she’s become obsessed with adding encaustic wax to her mixed media collages. She is honored to be a guest artist at Moon Over Water Gallery in Rockport and Studio C Gallery in Corpus Christi.
