Kelly Whyte
Rapley Fields Art Studio (Originals by Kelly)
My journey to capture the light in my paintings continues daily in my small countryside studio. I create bold, rich colourful oil and acrylic paintings that invite the viewer into my story. Walk down a path, follow a creek or gaze at a sunset, the subject is familiar and comfortable. I strive to relate to the viewer and remind them of that special place in their memory.
This artist is number 7 on the Studio Tour map.

Artist Statement
Kelly Whyte’s vision is to pursue her passion for painting local landscapes from the Kawartha Lakes and surrounding area. Her recently built studio, Rapley Fields Art Studio, is where Whyte creates bold, rich and colourful oil paintings that invite the viewer into her story. Walk down a path, follow a creek or gaze at a sunset, the subject matter is familiar and comfortable.
Kelly’s painting style leans towards realism but she also enjoys painting colourful, impressionistic paintings, with oils being her main medium. Kelly’s paintings have gained traction in her community. Whyte donated some her work for fundraisers for Ukraine and the local food bank. Community continues to be a huge part of this artist’s life and she is thoroughly enjoying the journey.
