ABOUT
Growing up in the South, Chelsea never fully embraced her artistry until she moved to Detroit where her art evolved from a pastime to a passion. She is a muralist and illustrator and enjoys large-scale creative expression. Self-taught, Chelsea has a hunger for learning and expanding her craft. She has a truly restless spirit which she embraces for constant artistic growth and exploration.
Leaning towards the psychedelic and cerebral, Chelsea’s art intends to make the viewer momentarily escape reality. Her artist style is childlike, imaginative, and bright. She strives to create chaos within her art while also providing stability through harsh, contrasting linework and bold colors.
Chelsea uses the moniker WakeUpChelsea as a personal reminder that art is the truest form of self-expression.
