Birthday Bird and I welcome you to my artist website!

I paint with acrylics because the colors are vibrant and the medium is forgiving. Each of my paintings tells a bit of a story. The viewer gets to figure out what happens next. The paintings are ready to hang, so they can begin their new life right away. I’m honored that many of my paintings are displayed in children’s bedrooms and school classrooms.

A new artist, I sometimes jump out of bed and begin to paint first thing in the morning. Painting makes me happy. Those who see my work say it makes them happy too. I’ve sold over one hundred paintings through my online presence and galleries and art shows in North Carolina. I also teach beginning acrylic workshops for kids and adults

I’m pleased to be a member of the Smith Island Art League of Bald Head Island, North Carolina.

If you’d like more information about my art or you want to buy or commission a painting, please contact me at BKYounger@gmail.com. I’m glad to ship a painting for $10.

Galleries and Shops: I’m grateful to have my work displayed at these creative and upbeat places. Hooray for gallery owners who support local artists.
