through color and concept have been a constant throughout my life.

During childhood, my canvases were many: smooth, concrete basement floors in my parents' new home, textured wall-paper in the hallways, etc.

This passion to create led to two degrees in Graphic Design. The first a Bachelors from North Carolina State University and the second a Masters from Carnegie Mellon University.

In the summer of 2005, I discovered a new canvas. With a new sewing machine given to me as a gift from my husband, I gladly traded in eleven years with a Mac for a Singer.

A year later, I launched my line, Kelly Lane: Clothing with Color.
