art, meet animal
welcome to my ongoing series of miniature mashups!
i play on words, art history, and culture to remix classical portraiture, iconic artworks, and period costumes with faces of favorite animals or treasured pets.
all images conceived by me, hand-painted in gouache, and approximately 3.5x4.5 in.
below you'll also find links to my blog and information about commission requests.
an online store will be coming soon. in the meantime, thanks for stopping by!

process & procrastination
once in a while someone will ask how i come up with these things.
[and by someone, i mean: my mom.]
here's where i'll share the backstories of a few of them, and any other random fits of inspiration or absurdity.
commission me
meet the artist
i'm a girl with three names who enjoys making all kinds of mischief.
i began these small paintings in 2024 as a series of inside jokes to send to family and friends. i've gotten so much joy out of creating and sharing them that the menagerie keeps growing and is now thoroughly out of control. so thanks to everyone who's encouraged me to release these critters into the wild. hope they brighten your day!
