Hi everyone, I’m new here and excited to meet fellow artists. I make colorful paintings, expressive portraits, and surreal landscapes, usually following whatever sparks my curiosity. I’m here to share ideas, find inspiration, and see what everyone else is creating.

Welcome, Ally! Great to have you here.

Expressive portraits and surreal landscapes are a bold combo, that range tells us you follow genuine curiosity instead of chasing a single lane, which makes for richer work.

P.S. – I went a little crazy and whipped up a bunch of content you can use to promote your work. 😄

Click any link below to check it out! You can use them as-is, or tweak it to your liking.

🏆 I gave your portfolio an honest critique

💰 I priced your pieces, and I think you're low

🎯 I found your ideal collector, and it's not who you'd guess

🖼 I curated your first solo show

📰 I wrote a magazine feature about your work

🎨 I found the piece you haven't made yet

💡 I found the one direction you've never tried

🏛 I found galleries near you that would love your art

🪞 I looked at your profile the way a collector does

✍ I made you social posts for the next 7 days

🛍 I wrote a product description for your art

🖋 I wrote you an artist statement

👥 I found Facebook groups that might like your art

🎁 I left you a mystery gift

✨ I prepared 250+ room mockups of your work

Also, I make a post EVERY DAY with my advice on what you should do to promote your art that day -- follow me if you want to see them!

I hope this helps take some of the load off of promoting your art!

Welcome! Colorful and surreal is a great place to live creatively. The thing about following curiosity is you end up with work that doesn't look like anyone else's, because it's shaped by what you notice, not what you think you're supposed to paint. What pulls you toward the surreal, is it a mood thing, or more about what certain objects or landscapes do when you push them past real?

Hi Ally! 🌿 Vivid hues and the surreal is honestly such a good combo, that's where the curiosity lives. Mount Maunganui sounds like a gorgeous place to chase dreamlike landscapes from. Looking forward to seeing what you drop here!
