Here I am! Marissa Arterberry

Painter, illustrator

I create art that's inspired by dreams, visions, my ancestors, and my life. I paint Black womxn.

My current projects include a children's book and oracle card deck, and when I'm not working on those I'm working on paintings of Black goddesses, Orishas, ancestors who whisper to me, or womxn I see on the street. I paint in watercolor, acrylic, and add copious amounts of yarn, ribbon, and glitter to almost everything 🤗

When I'm not painting, I'm gardening, running around with my two kids, or working at my school library job (I LOVE libraries!)
