visual and flow artist

Hi! Welcome to my portfolio/website, I go by Pebbles! I am 25 years old, born in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I specialize in acrylic painting, colored pencil, and mixed media art. I am also an active hula hoop dancer!

I love creating portraits. I also adore cartoons, so I’ve created renders of many famous characters for my own enjoyment. But, my favorite art consists of creatures out of this world.

Some of my subject matter would definitely be considered NSFW.

Pebbles Art

Style wise, I live in a world of freedom

when it comes to color.

I love psychedelic

styles that transport us into different

dimensions. Bright colors, swirls and waves,

surrealism that defies reality.

THE WORLD IS BRIGHTER WITH A LITTLE MORE COLOR

My journey

I’ve often felt like Alice,

I shift between being in wonder, and falling through the void again. The falling feels dark, like I’m lost, no control over where I land.

But once I’m there, it’s a joy to be at the mad tea party, surrendering to the dance of the moment.

I feel like art does that for people.

We can try to escape emotions, but feeling is in our nature.

Seeing, or creating something that resonates, allows us to tune in to who we are, return to the moment.

Art brings peace, camaraderie, life, color, and freedom. I want humans to feel like they’re healing, to feel loved, cared for, and understood. We must remember our divinity. I hope to achieve even a fraction of this in my art.

Visual Artist

I've loved art since I was a kid, and began to practice new artistic skills around the age of 12. I was inspired by artists on social media, and dove head first into my journey as a real artist!

I posted my art on instagram, and quickly grew a large social media following. I gained over 20 thousand followers by the age of 15! This allowed me to feel connected to a community, and motivated me to stay creating.

Flow Artist

I discovered the flow arts

about 4 years ago, and fell in love with the Hula Hoop.

The flow arts helps to tune

me in with graphic arts too,

because of the amazing

physical and mental

benefits:

such as healing from

trauma that can cause body disassociation,

as well as giving access to a

physical meditation which aids in motivation and inspiration!

EXPERIENCE

schooling

I excelled in my AP art classes

in high school, and did a year of

fast-paced graphic design classes

at Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology. Here I learned skills in software such as indesign, photoshop, and illustrator.

I’ve graciously had the opportunity to host 2 art shows, one at a music based bar and another in an art based coffee shop!
