ABOUT THE ARTIST
Whelpsy (or "Dragon" as her friends know her) is a self taught multi-medium artist with an impressive grouping of talents. She is skilled in digital and traditional artwork, leatherworking, book binding, hand-stitching, sculpture, and the creation of exotic fantasy crafts and jewelry, all while dipping her fingers in every other craft she can find.
Her specialties are pen and ink, watercolor, collage, and combining artistic mediums.
Her passion is creation,
believing there is no greater joy than bringing dreams to life while pushing the boundaries of emotion and expression.
"When I can touch an idea, something made of dreams and emotion and pull it in to reality to share with the world, that's when I am truly happy."
***
She takes great inspiration from psychology, the natural world of animals,
and the delicate beauty of both life and death.

Whelpsy has recieved several prestigious awards for her traditional work, and is currently running her own successful art business while preparing for a traditional gallery showing and professional artist debut in August of 2017.
"Art is a gift for you to create, and everyone to enjoy."
