Hi, I'm Kristal

I’m a painter from Ann Arbor, Michigan, creating colorful scenes of animals and the occasional flower that feel calm, gentle, and a little removed from the noise of everyday life.

Each piece is designed to feel like a quiet moment, something you can return to when you need a small sense of ease.

Thanks for being here.

Coming Home

It had been a long, gray, drizzly day, and by the time Ronin reached home, he was ready to leave it all on the other side of the door.

He put away his umbrella and slipped off his scarf, preparing to settle into his favorite chair where a warm blanket and cup of tea were waiting for him.

For Ronin, coming home means getting to set the whole outside world down for a while.
