Kelly Baker Art Advising

My eye, perspective and viewpoint reflect over 25 years of professional experience in the creative and commercial arts industries on both coasts. This journey continues to follow an exciting trail, winding through relationships with artists, creative mentors and business owners, through many cities and countries, leading me from gallery to artist studio to museum and to many unexpected, inspiring art moments in between. I am the travel friend that always has an art stop on the itinerary.

My professional experience includes photography and fine art licensing & management in New York City, work in the curatorial department of the Corcoran Gallery in Washington DC, non-profit artist development, arts retail management and a current role as a city art commissioner. In addition, I have spent well over 10 years in the photography and image industry which has included positions behind the camera, styling, producing and art directing.

I would love to talk with you and be your guide on a Northwest art journey, whether you are based in this area or looking to discover the region’s extraordinary artwork
