Artwork for calm, quiet moments
where nothing feels overwhelming

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.

Barley has been in the kitchen for a while now. He measures and mixes with extra care, thinking about who these treats are for.

Lottie loves the quiet rhythm of bike wheels on Mackinac Island. The Grand Hotel always makes her feel like she’s stepped into a storybook.
