Welcome to my Web site!

 

My name is Brandy Davis. I was born and raised in Fresno, CA. I had come to realize at a very young age that I had a talent for art, as well as a passion for it. I have so many memories of spending hours in my room drawing or painting by my bedroom window as the sun shone through; And I always did it simply because I wanted to. My times spent painting as a child had taught me how to see the small and simple beauties that we so frequently miss in this world. That is a special quality we tend to lose as we become older. Those memories still continue to influence my paintings today.

Shortly after graduating high school, I went on to attend the Academy of Art University in San Francisco in 2002 where I studied life drawing, sculpture, and painting. When I returned home, I took some time to find my niche in the art world. I had done everything from mural work, interior design, commissioned bead work, teaching art classes, and much more.

I am a tribal member of the Lipan Apache Band of Texas. So you'll find quite a bit of Native American influence throughout my current paintings. About two-and-a-half years ago I had started using feathers as my canvas to capture the beauty and naturalness of the Native American culture. Using acrylic paint on feathers is definitely a challenging, and sometimes tedious process. The detail and intricacy involved in each painting takes countless hours and concentration. But the rewards and uniqueness of the finished piece are so much more than my words can express. I often find myself having a hard time letting go of them. I just hope that everyone else will like them as much as I have enjoyed making them. By the way, all of these paintings that you see are HAND-PAINTED ORIGINALS. No two are alike.


I absolutely love what I do. This is my calling. And although I have never, and probably will never, recognize myself as an "artist", I do recognize that God has, in fact, given me a gift. My gift is having the goal to want to become an inspiration to others. That alone is enough reason to keep me painting for the rest of my life. So thank you to everyone who is inspired by me, because you are also my inspiration. Many blessings.
