Kay Novy (kkphoto1) Have always been interested in art in one form or another. Started out as a hairdresser, then oil and water color painter.

Along with my FAA site you are visiting, you can also find me on Redbubble, Zazzle, Pinterest, Google+ and Twitter. Just google kay novy or kkphoto1 All photographs are copyrighted and owned by the artist Kay Novy (kkphoto1). Any exploration...
