About Me

My photo
There are moments in time where our eyes are not used for sight, but to tell a story. Eyes can tell so much about a person: their journeys, heartaches, successes and thoughts within. From these instances, beautiful art is born. I have been an artist since I could hold a crayon. I really enjoy creating amazing pieces of art for people and seeing their smiling faces. I am able to create just about anything! I hope you enjoy my website and art. I create custom paintings and murals of all kinds. Feel free to contact me at eyecanseearts@gmail.com. I can't wait to create for you!

Kynlee's Butterfly

18" x 24"
Acrylic

This mystical butterfly was created just for baby Kynlee's new bedroom. Her mom came to me seeking a personalized piece of art that would coordinate with her new bedroom theme of butterflies. I thoroughly enjoyed creating this piece and I hope Kynlee enjoys looking at it everyday for years to come!

A Beautiful Mother

A Beautiful Mother
8"x10"
Acrylic

I painted this for a dear friend who lost her Mother over a year ago and this was her favorite picture of her. She came to me asking if I could bring her Mother's picture to life again. I very much enjoyed doing this. She is quite the beautiful woman, isn't she?

This was an entertaining painting to create. This idea was unplanned, sporadic and very dark and mystical. I can't tell you a story about this piece because it means whatever you want it to mean to you. Enjoy the visual adventure.

Divine Bough

Divine Bough 
(click to enlarge)
24"x 36"
Acrylic

This painting is my artistic interpretation of the bible verse 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7. Zoe came to me asking for me to interpret this verse so, here it is. Within this piece, there are several elements relating directly to the verse as well as personalized subjects. The main component of this piece is the Dogwood tree that is a not only the North Carolina state tree, but a symbol of a growing family and the wood used to create the cross on which Jesus Christ was crucified. This tree represents life, love and family. The key elements from the verse are displayed throughout the tree and highlighted with bold, bright colors. The flowers are scattered throughout the tree to portray liveliness and beauty.  

 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.”

                                                             -1 Corinthians 13: 4-7 ESV

Spirited Warrior

Spirited Warrior
24" x 36"
Acrylic


This painting was inspired by the movie "House of Flying Daggers". Last year my husband forced me to watch a subtitled Japanese movie against my will and it turned out to be one of the most artistically inspiring films I have ever viewed. The colors were so vibrant, rich and the beautiful textures of nature surrounded every scene. Samurai were the main theme and were always so intricate and precise in their movement. This painting is dedicated to my husband, Shaun. It will soon be the centerpiece in our redecorated bedroom.
