✨HELLO!✨
My name is Lazuli Ray; I am a visual artist who specializes in design and illustration mostly, located in Texas.
I have been designing and illustrating since I was a teenager, for over 10 years while slowly mixing other learned techniques. Began taking my work seriously after obtaining my Associates in Art degree in December 2014 and now after completing my BFA in Painting and Drawing from UTSA in May 2022, I still want to keep growing as an artist.
I am currently open to commissions and collaborations so if you would like to work with me, send me an email; contact is listed below. ☻
