THE PROCESS

I specialize in traditional, timeless oil painting techniques over more contemporary mixed media such as inks, charcoal, and even spray paint. My originals are mostly painted on the finest archival rag paper, but occasionally I’ll use wood panels or stretched canvas. I also create smaller art works using a type of watercolor called gouache on paper and even luxurious silk.

The majority of my time is spent continuing to develop my unique style and push the boundaries of my art. Through my commitment to bringing more beauty into this world, I invite my collectors to step into a new realm of possibilities. My paintings can be described as romantic realism, filled with dreamy, exotic, and wild creatures.

Once my paintings are complete I have them professionally digitized, which creates a perfect reproduction of the original painting, including all the details and vibrant colors I’m known for.

I am currently self-represented with the majority of my original paintings selling online and through select galleries.

KEEPING ART ATTAINABLE

I believe in being surrounded with beauty and imagery you love.  But I know original art can be expensive, costly to frame and display, and often out of reach.  That’s why I offer limited edition, fine art prints for my collectors as well as stationary, stickers, and smaller, more affordable signed prints.  I strive to keep my work of the highest quality while also maintaining affordability.  Having beautiful art in your home should never be out of reach.

BRAND COLLABORATIONS

If you have a product line, are interested in collaboration or licensing, please reach out.  Let’s work together.  I’m also in search of a licensing agent who loves my work and can help bring it to a wider market.

WHAT’S NEXT?

The journey I’m on continues to outstrip my wildest dreams.  Each quarter brings a fresh new collection as well as an opportunity for those on my mailing list to collaborate with me to create a customized piece of art and get their very own limited edition art print for free. You can start by signing up for my email list. There is so much more to come, so check back for updates.

Whatever the future holds, I hope you’ll join me.

It’s lovely to have you here.

I’m Renee, a full-time artist and photographer based in New Mexico, creating vibrant, nature-inspired artwork that celebrates the beauty of the wild and the comfort of the everyday. My pieces are filled with animals, botanicals, and bookish details. Think cats, birds, butterflies, flowers, and steaming cups of tea, all woven together with lush color and a touch of quiet magic. Inspired by my garden, my favorite stories, and the changing seasons, my work invites you into a world that feels both enchanted and deeply rooted in home.
