Born on a farm in Georgia, she attended school until ninth grade but then quit to help out at home.The highly-stylized decorative aspects of O’Kelley’s imagery have often been linked to commercial American art, including Christmas cards, fruitcake tins, and the popular nineteenth-century lithographs produced by Currier and Ives. However, when considered in the context of O’Kelley’s rural upbringing, these visual markers also indicate a deep connection to her family home./Private collection, no documentation.
