My Story

Hi! I'm Sommer Rayn, an artist from Baltimore, MD. When I'm not in my art studio painting my joyful art, you can usually find me walking on various nature trails, hiking, visiting parks, and strolling through the downtown areas of the city.  I love to photograph the beauty around me and use my photos as inspiration for my work. 
​
I love to combine mediums in my drawings, especially with my highly detailed whimsical characters.  I use a gentle watercolor wash for the background and then layer the piece with soft undertones for my colored pencils. It's always a joy to watch my characters come to life! I create my paintings with acrylics.   I just get lost in the moment, and at times I surprise myself with the outcome. I adore all aspects of art.  
​
I believe my art represents the joy I feel daily. My art is like my meditation, and I could immerse myself in it all day long; however, I do have a family and several kitties that require my attention.
