Ashley Taner
About the artist:
I am Ashley Taner, a 33-year-old artist from Visalia, California. My artistic journey began a year ago after a knee injury left me bedridden, prompting me to explore painting as a form of expression. Inspired by my Mexican heritage, I combine various painting styles to convey my emotions and perspectives. Infusing vibrant colors and dynamic shapes, despite my struggles with depression. Drawing inspiration from everyday objects and unique viewpoints, I meticulously place each dot with purpose.
Painting has been my refuge, aiding in my mental health journey and newfound sobriety. Eyes and flowers fascinate me, which act as avenues to delve into the depths of my creations and explore the profound meanings on the canvas. Through my art, I aim to evoke deep connections and emotions. Urging viewers to experience more than just images by feeling the essence within each piece.

About the artist:
Victoria Pouncy aka Nikol is a native of Shreveport, Louisiana. She’s been creating for as long as she can remember. Her art is lead by emotions and music and depends on the exact timing of what feels right in that wistful moment. She combines an admiration for nature with the bold and fierce elements of femininity. Her color schemes, are primarily red, blue, white, and black and she likes the simplicity of those shades while incorporating drawing techniques such as stippling and crosshatching.

About the artist:
I was born and raised in Ruston, La. Left in 2003 after college and moved to Denver and eventually landed in Austin in 2011. Worked Pediatric/Neonatal Respiratory Therapy for a total of 14 years before deciding to leave healthcare and move back to Louisiana.
I've always been passionate about horses so decided to rescue a few from a kill pen and a neglected horse from a rescue. 2 of them are beautiful black and white paints and were the inspiration for a lot of my work.
I mainly do black and white animals on either black or white canvas, occasionally I add some color to the background but try to keep the animals just black and white. Native American culture also reflects in my work. Black and White Pet Portraits can be commissioned as well.
I've learned to live without expectations so who knows what my future work will be. I'm continuously learning and growing so this could get interesting. I'm also a pretty big risk taker.
Look for hidden words, faces, images in my art. I always enjoyed where's Waldo as a kid so sometimes add a little surprises if you look hard enough.
Follow along for this Journey they call life as I try to create my own little heaven on Earth!!!
