About Kyle Stanley

I have been an artist in some capacity for as long as I can remember. My great uncle, Michael Vollbracht, was a world renowned fashion designer and illustrator. I was never very close to him, but he was always a huge inspiration to me growing up. Just knowing that I had someone in my family that had some artistic flair and was successful using it, always made me want to follow in his creative footsteps. I have always been more of an "illustrator". I created over 1,000 pairs of custom hand illustrated shoes for customers all over the globe. I gained a large celebrity clientele including, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Michael Rooker, Dave Butista and many more! When my uncle passed away in 2018, I really started to want to grow my skill set. It was then I decided to pick up oil paints and never looked back! I have been painting almost every day since. It is all I want to to from the time I wake up to time I go to bed. My most recent works have been greatly inspired by my Native American background and the City of New Orleans. My wife in I live in Kansas City but consider New Orleans our home at heart!
