Hi, I’m Blakeley!

I’m the artist, color enthusiast, and creative mind behind BK Art Co. I’m based in Farmington, Arkansas, where I live with my husband, our son, and what can only be described as a small zoo consisting of three dogs and one cat.

I’ve always been a little obsessed with the arts. I was originally a musical theatre major in school before eventually finding my way to illustration, earning my BFA in Illustration from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). Somewhere along the way, I realized that creating things (and probably using way more color than necessary) is where I feel most at home.

Color, texture, and creativity are at the heart of everything I do. I love that art can completely change the feeling of a space, make someone laugh, bring a memory to life, or simply make someone’s day a little brighter.

Art has also been one of my biggest sources of healing. As someone who has experienced my own struggles with mental health, creating has given me a place to process the hard things, celebrate the good things, and turn a little of everything in between into something beautiful. That’s a huge part of why my work often carries messages of hope, growth, connection, and joy.

And honestly? I’ll paint just about anything.

A colorful, heavily textured abstract? Absolutely.
Your ridiculously cute, spoiled dog? I’m in.
A pair of sneakers that need some personality? Let’s do it.
A mural to brighten up your space? Sign me up.

I don’t think art has to follow a certain set of rules. Sometimes it’s meaningful. Sometimes it’s playful. Sometimes it’s just really, really colorful. Whatever form it takes, my goal is simple: create things that bring people joy.

Thanks for being here and letting me share a little piece of my colorful, slightly chaotic creative world with you!
