Meet the
Artist
Hi, I'm Oliver. I'm a gardener by day and freelance visual artist by night. I make whimsical, colorful pieces that center around plants. I work in different mediums: acrylics, watercolors, gouache and digital. But these days I’m mostly an acrylic painter. Much of my inspiration comes from nature and botany along with the work of commercial background artist who create stunning environments. I grew up on a lot of cartoons and video games and I can see the influence environmental art has had on my current paintings. I use a lot of bright saturated colors and enjoy contrasting organic forms with simple geometric shapes, giving the pieces a playful, fantastical feel.

About My Newsletter
I get it—being spammed emails is annoying. But, relying solely on the AI slop fest/political dumpster-fire that is most social media sites for outreach is…not ideal as a small business owner. So, If you want to keep up with my art journey, know about sales and new series I’m working on, joining the newsletter is the most reliable way to do just that! Because it is more curated I only send it out about 2-5 times a year. Check out my blog for more day to day stuff. Happy art collecting!
