Somerset Maugham wrote of Kelly’s paintings:
‘His Burmese dancers… have a strange impenetrability, their gestures are enigmatic and yet significant, they are charming and yet there is something curiously hieratic in their manner; with a sure instinct and with a more definite feeling for decoration than is possible in a portrait. Mr Kelly has given us the character of the East as we of our generation see it’ (W.S. Maugham, A Student of Character, 1914, pp. 30-31, 36.)
