About the Artist

Kelsey Dzintars is a versatile fine artist, tattooist, muralist, and illustrator rooted in Bozeman, Montana. Growing up pursuing art and music in Rapid City, South Dakota, she followed her creative passion to Montana State University, earning a BFA in Graphic Design in 2009.

Dzintars’ acrylic paintings draw from her deep connection to the northern Rockies, weaving together expressive landscapes and surreal portrayals of nature’s divine feminine essence. Her work often merges with the mission of outdoor-centered businesses and nonprofits, aiming to nurture and protect both the wilderness within us and the wild places beyond.

When not creating in her studio at the Emerson Center in Bozeman, you’ll find her exploring western rivers and mountains with her partner, Aaron, and their spirited mutts, Ripley and Neko.
