Kelvin Spears is a multi-disciplinary artist, designer, and educator based in Louisiana.

I’m a Digital Lead and Content Producer for FOX48 WNTZ, where I manage fast-paced creative projects, client relations, and social media strategy. Outside the newsroom, I teach private art and music classes for teens and adults, funding them through sales of my own artwork.

My creative path started early and led me to earn a BFA in Studio Art from Louisiana Tech. Since then, I’ve taught in schools, nonprofits, and beyond—while continuing to freelance as a content designer and music producer.
