Nicole Kelner creates educational art to inspire climate action. She uses watercolors to communicate complex ideas in climate in a beautiful, accessible way.

She just published a coloring book about clean energy called Electrify Everything and is launching a Climate Art 101 course.

She has worked with clients such as the Department of Energy, Sunrun, Climate Tech VC, My Climate Journey, Harvard, and The Climate Museum to help create custom watercolors.
