Description
Kelly Borsheim is an American sculptor who creates stone and bronze figures. Michelangelo’s sculpture lured her to Italy originally, but she returned again and again for inspiration and a deeper understanding of classical art. Little did she know that her future would bring her to her knees recreating Renaissance masterpieces in the streets of Florence. Kelly was also chained up in a protest against the taxation of street artists, the subject of a story in an Italian newspaper, and shared the joys of chalk with children visiting from all over the world. “My Life as a Street Painter in Florence, Italy” is a visual journey (including over 330 images) of one artist’s discovery of an art form that dates back to the 16th century.
