My name is Mackenzie Brett, and I am a student at Victoria West High School. I play saxophone in the west band, and take both traditional and digital art classes. Art has been my passion since elementary school, with my favorite thing to draw being cartoon characters. For this Art Walk, I will be selling canvas paintings, large prints (8×10), keychains, and button pins.
Hello, it’s Jo Ro! I am new to Victoria and to the art world. I’ve been painting, sewing and crocheting for as long as I can remember. I have also, more recently begun writing poetry to go with my paintings.
My great-grandmother inspired me to start creating. She was one of the first people who I saw creating to make people happy. She was very active in her community and she used her art to connect with people. She bought me my first art supplies and always made sure to check on my progress. Even after her passing, she continues to inspire me to be the best artist I can be and to stay true to myself. I;m trying to put myself into more art circles because of her.

I was born and raised in Victoria. I am a self-taught artist who started taking my painting seriously in the summer of 2021. Because I am self taught, I believe it has led to the development of my own unique painting style. Being full time for the last 2 years has given me the opportunity to experiment with different techniques and styles when I am not painting commission pieces. I do not take for granted the wonderful position I am currently in. I will continue to work extremely hard at my craft guaranteeing that I will continue to improve!
Bio
Hello! My name is Michelle Allen. I grew up in Goliad but now reside in Victoria with my husband, our two daughters and an assortment of pets.
I’ve always been interested in art but became more serious about it in my late teens. Fantasy art is my favorite genre and I love to paint and draw faeries and mermaids. I will try different styles and types of art as well. I use pencil, copic markers, acrylics and watercolor, but oil painting has always been my favorite.
I also work as a vet tech and in my free time I enjoy crocheting, reading, writing letters, and gardening.
