Heather May for Art By Heather May 

“I’m an artist specializing in a variety of different mediums, from traditional to digital works of art.  Personally, I’m also a writer, film blogger, and aesthetic nostalgic appreciator. Lately, I have been really into acrylics and expressionism and wanted to offer something in that medium for commissions. 

I’m currently running a Custom Valentine’s Portrait Special. 

ROUGE GIRLS: 12×16 print – Price: $55 

(sent digitally and upscaled for fast HD printing)  

Custom coloring and theme, but will be like the example styles shown here in technique. 

I do not use a website for purchasing of my works currently, because I do most of my art business directly and digitally to cut on shipping costs and faster service.  

Payment is directly through Cash App or Venmo (hmayxo) 

I have a very high seller feedback and meet my deadlines. 

You can reach out to me via my art Instagram via DM @ artbyhmay or personal @ starrymayx for inquiries.  I will then send work via email.  

I need about 3 days for each custom, so if you want it before Valentine’s, the sooner the better to put in your request.  Cut off date is February 5th with currently 8 spots available.

“My name is Maddie (@madd.bell on Instagram), and my shop name on Etsy is Cosmic Ranch (https://www.etsy.com/shop/cosmicranch)  Right now I am selling homemade Valentine cards in the shop.

“The paper heart doily captures a certain nostalgia and tenderness that surrounds Valentine’s Day. Paired with unconventional lyrics from love songs old and new, each Valentine is handmade using paper in a local secondhand craft store. Free shipping through USPS. Cut off order date is February 8.”
