End of the Year Report (2013) Artistic Prophet Studios

End of the Year Report (2013) Artistic Prophet Studios

Well... Here we are another year in the books. Artistic Prophet Studios... We started out in 1994 with many goals in mind and we can proudly say that every major goal has been achieved. We've been all over the world with this artwork and reached millions of people in 19 years. 

It was our ultimate goal to leave a lasting legacy behind and continue our job and we're on schedule to do just that. "Windows of the Soul" THE ART - THE BOOK - THE CHAPEL 
was always the main goal in mind. 

After working with thousands of people in many different aspects of life with the artwork 
(Here is just a short list of highlights we have post on the BIO page of our website such as the following:
 "
From his work with the legendary lead vocalist Jon Anderson from the progressive rock
group YES on collaborations in stained glass, to his masterfully styled prophetic oil paintings
or illustrations for album cover art, to artistic contributions to the Contemporary Youth Orchestra
of Cleveland for the HDNet Concert Series, or his contributions of artwork to the careers
of Kevin Max, (dc Talk/Audio Adrenaline), Kerry Livgren (Kansas/Proto-Kaw),
Julian Lennon and the Jimi Hendrix Music Academy.

Steven Kelso has lived a multifaceted adventure with an “Extra” part in the international blockbuster
movie Spiderman 2, filmed during one of his annual art exhibitions in the capital of the fine art world
New York, to his exhibitions in France, Italy and throughout the world participating in gallery
sponsored art expositions in Europe to the Far East.

Kelso's work can be seen in museums, galleries and educational institutions worldwide with the latest
edition of his work going on display at the Hard Rock Cafe in Seattle and Art Basel Miami."

It brings us full circle back to our hometown Indianapolis with our final goal.  

We've achieved our permanent "Home" for our lasting legacy with the signature artwork
"Windows of the Soul" that we've in-dearly called throughout the years artwork for the 
"Armageddon Travelers"... This safe house, (The Windows of the Soul Chapel) will be that place.

Our very first serious painting in fact, had that running title in 1986 so really the vision goes back even further however blurred it might on been then. So, with that being said we are on track to finish the last 4 canvas murals in the studio in 2014 and apply them to the chapel walls then. 

2013 was a "wind down" year for us after the crazy activities from 2006-2012 which seen us at our most active stages trying to "pack it all in" so to speak. 

Anyway what else can be said... We've enjoyed it and it has been special. We are almost there.
"Something's Coming" JC of course
as we've always said...

Keep the Faith.
Peace;
