Hello, my name is Bri,
and I'm a doodle addict. Kansas

Hello! I'm Bri, and welcome to my art medley! I'm 24 years old and on my journey of passionately pursuing my love for art. I started taking art very seriously in January 2018, and began with specializing in photo-realistic portraits. My main medium for years was charcoal, but I'm currently expanding my works to include watercolors, pen and ink doodle, gouache paint, colored pencils, and oil paint. My primary goal is to keep my creativity alive and gift/commission my works along with growing my connections in the art industry. I took a break for a few years due to life changes and missed creating art every single day. I'm hoping this platform will help to keep me accountable as well. If you'd like to contact me - my business email is bribriwaters1@gmail.com or direct message me on my Instagram @ briviningarts. Take care, friend!

I specialize in art, charcoal, colored pencil, doodling, gouache, oil, painting, pen and ink, portraits, traditional art, watercolor.

this was just a fun little doodle I did of a pretty plant I saw. it was absolutely stunning and the bright salmon/rose/red flowers just POPPED! this was a nice leisure time doodle to do in between some other projects of mine. I find my happy place sometimes being taking care of my plants, taking pictures of pretty trees and plants, walking around a plant nursery, and now drawing beautiful plants I see. my favorite fact I learned about the amaryllis was that is comes from the Greek word amarysso, which means “to sparkle” or “to shine”, as this plant does indeed sparkle and with its magnificent flowers when it blooms. I enjoyed mixing mediums and doing one as a graphic doodle with my Micron pens and the other with watercolors - it was a good study for me seeing the detail come to life by lines/dots and then come to life by colors/shadowing colors.

this was a sweet gift I did for Christmas for my mom & dad - they love traveling and Telluride, CO, has become their second home! my mom loves Aspen trees and the mountains, found it only fitting they be included in this collaged painting I did for them. I used gouache paint for all landscape and watercolors for my parents. It was fun combining the two paint types and my first attempt using gouache paint - I loved it!

christmas ‘24 destination spent with my people - thankful for the few days of quality family time, endless memories made, the many many laughs, and the beautiful view we were blessed with from our airbnb! enjoy a little watercolor I did while there, a breathtaking view from the Ozarks!

I tried out some oil marker art and ‘neonified’ a portrait as a gift for my brother. It was a really fun new project, and definitely adding Posca markers to my art bag soon! Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday’s, everyone!

A recent doodle of mine completed that was requested by my sister. This was done with Pigma Micron pens sizes ranging from 0.005 - 0.08. The main star of the show was my 0.01 pen. I loved the tiny detailing and shading my expanding my line giving it the realistic effect.

I decided to try another doodle - some inspiration behind this one - I’ve recently heard how life seems to be this constant dreadful loop, cylinder like walk, everyday the same. Life is more of a triangle, with the point of being up and down, one turn different than the next, and I guess you could say the next turn is unknown - why I left the one side blank, for your interpretation of what happens next.

a completed portrait of Ian Somerhalder - from the same phot sesh I did a previous portrait of him - enjoy :-)

I’ve really been enjoying ink lately - whether pen or Micron inks - it’s been a fun style to try. This was interesting, something different to a typical city street view.

a twist to a style I’ve always wanted to try and a historic style of art I’ve always admired - enjoy!

Doodles, doodles, doodles. THIS IS NOT MY ORIGINAL DESIGN - I do not know who the original artist is but was inspired by some doodles I had seen on my Instagram feed. I definitely really enjoy these kinds of doodles, so relaxing and not so STRESSFUL as some of my charcoal realistic portraits can be.... might do some more :-)
