Kristy is a multidisciplinary artist currently juggling her full time office job while pursuing art on the side. For as long as she can remember, Kristy grew up drawing on a pencil and paper wherever the opportunity was presented. She then moved on to learn other mediums such as acrylic, oil, coding, ceramics, and digital. Her practice spans a variety of mediums but she is always drawn back to the natural fluidity and expression of watercolors.
Fresh out of college she decided to open up an Etsy store with her friends to begin pursuing their life long goal of turning art into a full time career. She is currently based in So Cal where she attends local markets and conventions to sell her art and meet artist friends.
