Art by Butterfly Rising Designs

I’m a mixed media artist based in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where I create playful and meaningful art that blends color, texture, and a touch of the unexpected. For me, art is about exploration—jumping in, releasing fear, and allowing the process to unfold. I’m constantly observing the world, looking for new ways to interpret what I see. My work reflects this curiosity, from surreal landscapes to humanized robots and electric trees, blending elements of science, time, and nature. My goal is to spark curiosity and invite viewers to dive deeper into the layers of meaning within the artwork. I want my art to be an experience that lingers and leaves you thinking. As a kinesthetic artist, I love the tactile experience of painting—feeling the brushstrokes and adding unexpected details that push the boundaries of what’s possible. You’ll often find materials like watch parts, jewelry, and collage papers—objects that spark memories and add layers of meaning to my creations. In addition to being an artist, I’m also an educator and lifelong learner, constantly diving into new disciplines. This multidisciplinary approach enriches my art, and I strive to inspire others to embrace curiosity, think critically, and find joy in the process of discovery.
