hey hey hey…

I’m Ally, an artist based in Orlando, Florida. I was raised in south Florida in a small town called Royal Palm Beach near Loxahatchee and am a country girl at heart. Growing up near sugar cane fields and horse stables, I’ve always loved nature, animals, and the outdoors.

I’ve been drawing and painting since I was 3 years old. When I went on trips with my family as a little girl, I would run to the pen and paper in the hotel rooms and start doodling portraits of my family members. As I got older, I spent summers painting at my grandparent’s house, taking art classes from my 70-year old art teacher, Mrs. Linda, and binge watching every one of the Bob Ross painting episodes. It was only until high school that I started to bud into an artist and gain confidence in my art. With encouragement from my friends, I started an Instagram page dedicated to my art, which was truly a catalyst to my journey as an artist.

Almost five years later and never would I have imagined that I would be able to do art as a living. The little girl doodling in a hotel room could only dream she would have the opportunity to paint at weddings, have her art featured in festivals, and design puzzles & book covers. I am so grateful to God that I am able to have my art mean something special to amazing people like you!

My faith is such a big part of my life. I love being able to connect with others and serve. I try to capture the true, the good, and the beautiful in my paintings

Faith

Family

Whether it’s golfing with my dad, scrap booking with my mom, or cuddling with my mini dachshund, I love spending time with my fam

I love the outdoors because it brings me so much peace. They say nature is the face of God and I couldn’t agree more

Nature

What fills me up? It’s being able to serve and give my time and art to amazing people like you!

Go Knights!

I recently graduated from the University of Central Florida with my Bachelor of Science in Physics and Minor in Mathematics! (I painted my grad cap below hehe) I am so grateful for my four years at UCF and all of the friendships I have made. Here’s to a new chapter!!

Some of my favs…

  • Brownie Batter if it's been a day but strawberry if it's a hot day :p Yes I love love love ice cream. It is my favorite food and I will always have room for it after dinner. I will only eat plain vanilla ice cream if its on a brownie or apple pie, otherwise I feel like it's super basic. Also hot take: I will only eat apple pie if its cold--I really hate it if it's hot from the oven

  • Country, folk, indie, and rock in that order hehe (my favorite artist changes all the time cause I listen to sooooo much music lol)

  • Interstellar period.

  • I would have to say baseball and golf. When I was younger my mom had the 2003 Miami Marlins World Series games all on tape (yes it was 7 games lol) and she would play them for me to fall asleep at night. No one understands when I say baseball is my comfort sport! I've been playing golf since I was 12 so I gotta go with golf as my number one
