Jamie Kimmel Shelton is a multi-media artist from the Central Texas Hill Country.  After completing her BFA and MFA in metal-smithing, she returned to what she does best: draw animals. The “drawings in metal” combined with colorful painted backgrounds satisfy the metal artist in her and allow her to explore color and texture.

Many of the artworks are of horses which are her favorite subject - not only for their form, but for their historical significance. Mankind has had a long association with the horse. From the cave paintings at Lascaux to Picasso’s “Guernica” and beyond, the horse has been featured in art and mythology all over the world.  The titles of the paintings reflect her research into the history and mythology of the world’s cultures.
