About me

A young artist finding her voice

Hi, I'm Arissa — a 16-year-old illustrator and digital artist with a love for storytelling through visuals. Art has been my language since I could hold a pencil.

I work primarily in pen-and-ink illustration and digital painting, exploring themes of nature, identity, and imagination. Every piece is an attempt to translate what I feel into something you can see.

Currently in 11th grade and dreaming of art school. Always creating, always learning.

What I learned from drawing every day for a month
I challenged myself to sketch something daily in February. Some days were hard. All of them taught me something.

Finding a style: the long road to drawing like yourself
Everyone tells you to "find your style." Nobody tells you how long it takes, or how many artists you'll imitate along the way.
