This proud mamma duck has one eye on the camera, and one eye on her babies, who are freshly shaking off the nearby pond water. This one is for the animal lovers!

I am a lifelong multidisciplinary artist who explores many forms of arts and crafts, with current focuses on representational acrylic painting, digital arts, and upcycled crafts. In my primary love, acrylic portrait paintings, I try to share the story of that moment. I particularly enjoy painting people in costume or cosplay as an exploration of bonding, empowerment, and self-confidence. I also happen to be a "spoonie" - a person with disabilities resulting in chronic pain and limited energy. For me, creating art is a meditation, a therapy, occasionally a natural pain reliever, and most of all something that brings me joy! When someone sees my work, I hope they find something there that resonates within them, even something they cannot...
