About Alaina

my family and i are blown away by the amazing scenery here in the uk.

We often visit the peak district, dartmoor, the lake district, and cornwall.

a breathtaking natural scene or piece of artwork can often move me to tears in a way i can't describe.

I am a digital and analogue intuitive artist, living in rural Hertfordshire, UK, with my Danish husband, two energetic children and an even more energetic dog.

As a child I always loved to express myself in various artistic mediums, and when the internet first became a thing, I could see the potential to reach other creative souls outside my small circle. I knew that someday I would make my living that way, and in 2014, after starting a family, two university degrees (in English then Software Development) and a slew of unsatisfying desk jobs, it was time. 

In 2014, I started online shops selling digital design resources like graphics, patterns, photoshop styles, and fonts, to my fellow creatives. In 2018, I discovered the Procreate iPad app and fell in love with it. I could see that this app was very powerful, but also user friendly and budget friendly enough to make digital art accessible to many more people. I especially loved becoming part of the vast and supportive community of Procreate users and I began creating brushes for intuitive abstract art styles that I loved, and building my own community around intuitive digital art.

I feel very passionate about encouraging others to find their inner artist and express themselves, in whatever way resonates with them. I also feel strongly that art is for everyone, which is why I have currently chosen to focus on digital art, because I believe that it has the potential to make artistic expression available to people who might not otherwise be able to pursue it.
