MY STORY

I’M AERICA RAVEN

I weave stories of growth, change, and wonder using striking visuals of animals, plants, and nature’s extraordinary patterns. In the last few years, I have used my experience as a muralist and installation artist to create what I call “light dynamic paintings”. These ink paintings are designed to react under color changing lights, and reveal different images based on the lighting. Between the meticulous brushstrokes and intentional lighting design, the visual experience of these works is truly breathtaking. 

Outside the studio, I actively work to bring art to the public by painting for individuals, businesses, and nonprofits. I create art throughout the United States while maintaining my studio practice here in Fort Collins CO.
