About the Artist: Ivy Case
โ€œMy work is about curiosity! It also has unintentionally become the guiding โ€˜lineโ€™ in my life. The best adventures of my life have unfolded whenever Iโ€™ve followed my intuition and held on tight, even when it hasnโ€™t looked like any other personโ€™s life I could compare to โ€ฆ and I like to invite that same principle into my creative process. I like to combine color, symbolism, and expressive lines to create dreamscapes that feel intriguing and bright.โ€
