Hey there! My Name is Chelsea.

Hey, Hey, I’m Chelsea! I’m so glad you’ve found my tiny corner of the internet, where I can show my passion to the world.

I’m an artist based out of Boise, ID. I am a wife to a funny, handsome man who just happens to be my best friend and partner in all things goofy and we created two great kids, who bring me so much joy. I have a birthmark that covers most of the left side of my face, sometimes I wear makeup, and sometimes I don't. My hubby and I love the outdoors and all it offers from kayaking to camping. We take our kids with us on all our adventures and I hope to instill the same love for the outdoors in them. Most weekends, we are off, deep in the mountains somewhere. My little family is the creation I will always be the proudest of and the one that brings me the most joy!

I was born in the small town of Preston, ID. I’ve been drawing on every scrap piece of paper I could get my hands on since I was knee high to a grasshopper. I’ve never went to art school and I didn’t do art classes in high school. I’ve always just doodled and dabbled until 2020 when I came across pastel YouTube tutorials. I was smitten with these big sticks of color and my sweet husband bought me a set of unison pastels and I’ve been enamored ever since.

I love the mountains but I love the ocean even more. It is my happy place, and I swear it gives me magical powers the minute my feet hit that wet sand and I smell the salt in the air. We make a trip to the ocean at least once a year. Photography is another passion. I try to capture photos I can create art from. I live to create, creating is my happy place. I love color. I love what color can do to your mood and energy. I'm always looking for new ways to challenge myself and my abilities. I love being pushed out of my bubble it exhilarates me.

I enjoy talking with passionate people. Nothing is better than seeing someone light up when they talk about something they love that is so soul deep it lights up their eyes in a special way.

A quick list of personal delights... video games (Skyrim anyone?), gardening, anything to do with plants from composting to propagating, castles (I just love them), that glow that comes across the sky at dusk right after the sun has set, making my hubby laugh, seeing my kids grow and learn, reading..mostly fantasy fiction (any book with magic, sign me up!), swimming, hiking, and puzzles I'm a puzzling maniac.
So here is me, I hope you enjoy my art as much as I enjoy making it!
