Krystal Garcia

I have been inspired to be creative growing up from seeing my mom paint oil paintings to doing ceramics with my grandma. I was raise on a ranch and have a love for the outdoors. Everything I see or dream I want to bring to life in a sketch or painting. I have more recently got more involve with my work to get away from the pain in the real world, especially with the COVID-19 Pandemic that recently took my Aunt to the Lord. My art is what keep me going.

Being Creative

This protofolio contains all of my work that I have been learning and creating with different mediums and techniques. I always love creating new work and it makes me even more excited to try different techniques and mediums I have learned throughout my art journey, My most used medium is acrylic but I do work with oils, watercolors, charcoal, pastels and alcohol inks. I hope you enjoy viewing this portfolio.

This work was created using acrylics, spending over 10 hours to complete. Elephants are a symbol of strength, commitment and gentleness.

The colorful designs around it is a symbol of creativity and positivity.

Wildlife sketches

This is a portfolio to show my sketches of all wildlife. I was inspired to draw animals after I did a spiritual reading. My cards read that this upcoming year 2021 I will be lead by a Coyote. Doesn't sound to promising but as the days go by, I am finding it more and more believable as things occur I realize, yes the Coyote is leading me. I am often wondering what is it that he has to teach me this year. I soon hope to find out. I have also drawn other spirit animals as these animals were what my family and friends cards were. 2021 is looking to be another interesting year, but I feel that it is going to be a better one.
