I have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember on everything and anything I could get my hands on. My father was my biggest cheerleader when it came to my art, but got frustrated with me drawing in his beloved books. Because of this, at age 6 he had me in basic children art classes. These classes opened a door for me that lead me to my beloved art teacher Fran T. May. At age 8 Fran came to my art class and asked me if I would be interested in attending one of her adult art classes. Of course I did and that one move truly changed the way I viewed myself and my ability as an artist. I stayed in her class until I turned 18, at which point she told me there was nothing more she could teach me and encouraged me to explore my own ability. I am eternally grateful to Fran for the love and guidance she gave me.

Today, I have a booth at the Texas Renaissance Festival (#670 Wizard Way) called the Butterfrog. During off season of faire I show at a few other renaissance festivals in Texas & Oklahoma, White Linen in the Heights and First Saturday Art Market.
Doing this has allowed me to place my pieces in private collections and help many charities and local families in need.

Enchanted Photo Design

by Kristy Allmon
My signature style with Enchanted Photodesign offers a luminous, ethereal view of a widely diverse array of subjects, from personal portraits to hard-edged urban views, from wildflowers to vivid graffiti. Far more than a business name, Enchanted Photodesign describes my approach to photography itself, a highly characteristic expression of my worldview, which creates a unique and immediately recognizable body of work. www.enchantedphotodesign.com 713-320-2713

Layered Beauty Designs


The Mosaic Series started in 2013 with the “Mosaic Elephant” and is constantly evolving.  When creating each animal, I move fluidly through the process with sensitivity to the way I am feeling:  every line, color, and texture is made focusing on the energy that encompasses me at the time.  Further, patterns naturally form and create a rhythm within the animal.  The overall composition is balanced with the focal point on the animal(s) as the primary subject in the artwork.  When creating, I let the product naturally unfold before my eyes revealing many truths about my interworking subconscious.  The animals are metaphors for things that are going on in my life.  I love the contrast with the black background, it brings the animal to life – as if it was leaping out at you!  Every painting is created with acrylic paint.  Commissions are welcomed!

“If I could choose one thing to do for the rest of my life-this would be it!  Nothing else comes close!”  I wish you-LOVE.

When I was in college, I was captivated by a painting at a nearby art museum: “The River Seine at Chatou” by Andre Derain. I would go and sit in front of it every week. Something about the colors…It JUST made me feel good. No matter what my mood, when I looked at it, I smiled. When I left, I felt happy. My goal as an artist is to do for others what Derain did for me…to lighten a mood and bring a smile….a pretty top-notch way to make a living in my book! www.aprilmurphy.com

Acrylic landscapes and abstract paintings. I get my inspiration from nature and process it through all my feelings and emotions. The result is shown in my art work as a way to express myself. If any of my art will make anybody happy for a moment, my mission is accomplished.
