25 | INFJ | Solitary Witch
My name is Athena and I create a number of different types of artwork, primarily digital nature and conceptual illustration. I am an artist, beekeeper, aspiring herbalist, massage therapist and yoga instructor. Although my mom and I traveled a lot while I was growing up, I spent most of my childhood in the Park Rapids area in Northern Minnesota, where I currently reside with my fiance behind a beautiful lakeside resort that he and I help manage with his parents. I began drawing digitally when I was 13 or 14 and have been ever since. I draw a lot of my muse from the forests surrounding my home, my friends, and a love for animals and all things natural. I have an affinity for drawing wild animals, particularly foxes, coyotes, and wolves.
I glean inspiration from a lot of different things, but mainly nature, music, my friends (and their artwork), my favorite novelists, and my emotions. Lately I have taken a shine to angels and angel hierarchy so many of my most recent works contain elements inspired by religious symbols such as angelic beings.
