Cat and I welcome you to my artist website. I create whimsical acrylic paintings and collages in my home studio in Hillsborough, North Carolina.
I started painting a few years ago. I’ve now sold almost 500 paintings through galleries, art shows, art festivals, and my online presence. Each of my paintings tells a bit of a story. The viewer gets to imagine the rest! Kids are quite drawn to my work, but its popular with grown ups too, especially those who like folk art.
To buy or commission a painting, please contact me at BKYounger@gmail.com. I ship! Email or message me for my prices, which are moderate. My goal is to get my art out into the world.

Here I am at the Handmade Market in Hillsborough, North Carolina, Spring 2022.

Gel Prints
I create one-of-a-kind prints with my gel plate, brayer, and acrylic paint. These come in10 by 8 or 14 by 11 mats. If you’re interested in a print, email me and I can send some photos. I have over a hundred prints, and so I don’t post all of them on my website. I can also do custom prints.
Alcohol Inks
I’ve just started creating abstracts with alcohol inks. Shoot me an email if you’re interested in a certain color or vibe.

I love to do commissions! Stephanie asked for a painting of her family, each disguised as their favorite animal. If you’re interested in a commission, shoot me an email at BKYounger@gmail.com. Thanks!
