The Studio's Story

Hello and welcome to a quiet nest of color, curiosity, and creative wings. What began as a simple online gallery has blossomed into a living portfolio of my original artwork.I'm Lyra, and my practice is rooted in a love for visual storytelling and handcrafted expression. Some pieces are quiet observations, while others are bright, bold, and a little mischievous in spirit. All of them are made with care, curiosity, and an affection for the living world.

Why "galloping crow?"

I’ve always felt kinship with crows, clever, observant, and never to be underestimated. (They also "gallop" when they run!) The word "galloping" captures momentum and freedom, a joyful dash toward something, like a horse running to greet its companion. Together, these capture the spirit of my work: thoughtful but playful, grounded yet always ready to take flight.
