hi.

The artist behind v.deliberate.art is KV (she/her), a 30-something, self-taught, eco-conscious artist based in Grand Rapids, MI. Using palette knives, heavy-bodied acrylics, and super heavy gel mediums, she paints bold, textured florals and landscapes on upcycled canvases.

She values making art you can feel good about. She makes art that is deliberately...

• eco-conscious, because it's everyone's responsibility to act as stewards of our planet; 
• affordable, because we all deserve to own beautiful things;
• rooted in community & humanity, because corporate greed and AI are working to dismantle those things; and
• radically joyful as an act of resistance, because a society that is immobilized by fear is an easily controllable one.

When she's not painting, she's running after her (very fast) kiddo, reading romantasy, playing cozy video games, or giving her spouse high blood pressure by starting (yet another) project of some kind. #sorrynotsorry
