I’m Valley, like the landform. Yes, it is my given name.
I am an artist from Athens, Georgia.
I find my inspiration from wildlife and the contortion and study of anatomy. My life as a wildlife caretaker and procurer of a Masters degree in natural resources gives me a front row seat in the trails and drama of wildlife. I continue to watch and admire the autonomy and intelligence of animals living in the wild and hope to emanate that realistic individualism in my art.
I use small pens to create lifelike, yet stylistically flared, portraits and scenes. Using such intricate utensils allows me to focus and really study the detail in animals and monster anatomy alike.
I urge you to please look closely at the pieces because the more you look, the more you will see.
