About Me

Krystlesaurus paints subjects from creepy to cute, and a few things in between. Originally from California, she moved to Portland, Oregon in 2010 to get her Associates in Arts degree and has decided to make the Pacific Northwest home. Her art has been described as “disturbingly beautiful” and “creepy, but cute”. Although she dabbles in many mediums, she primarily works in acrylic, mixed-media and watercolors. Using these mediums, she paints cute creatures, monsters, skulls and more. Halloween themes and dark subjects can be seen in her works, as well as some whimsical works as well. Splashing and smearing paint to abstract her subjects is a current theme in her works. 


In 2024, she and her partner John Searing launched a friendly painting competition, Paint Fight PDX where artists go head to head painting for 30 minutes.
