Hello and Welcome!
Lily is the creator of LMVS Studio, a freelance based art business. She specializes in traditional and digital art of people, animals, landscapes and more. She's been drawn to the art world since she was a child, and has been building her skills ever since. She has designed logos for family and friends, as well as creating a coloring book for MSU's 4H Extension Program, since the age of 14.
She took art classes all through schooling, and was in AP Art her senior year of high school. Her concentration revolved around bringing awareness to the critically endangered species of the world that desperately need our help. Currently, Lily is 23 years old and graduated in 2023, getting her B.A. in Graphic Design and a Minor in Spanish.
"At the end of the day, my goal is to bring light to many topics like climate change, endangered species, habitat loss, and mental health awareness to the public. Aside from those topics, I spend the rest of my time doing portraits of friends, family, and people I admire in life. I love to bring smiles to people's faces and would like to continue bringing people's ideas and my own to life through my work. The importance of saving endangered species and working to conserve them across the globe I cannot stress enough. For years now, I have been researching and working to spread awareness on social media and other platforms through my work. I focus on the most critically endangered species that need our help as we speak- with many of their numbers dwindling below 80 individuals worldwide. I have been a member of the World Wildlife Fund for almost two years now and encourage you to look into organizations and ways you can help :)
The thing that people don't often realize is that, if we don't step up and fight for change, donate, and raise awareness to help our endangered species, they will disappear. Very soon. And when this happens, our ecosystems will be thrown off balance and we humans will face catastrophic consequences. As you may know, the loss of species triggers the loss of other species in our ecosystems, and we as humans depend on these ecosystems for the purification of our natural resources.
*Under the illustrations page, you can find my AP Art series pieces about our most critically endangered species. You can purchase prints of any of the 12 pieces in that series, and 15% of the proceeds will go to the WWF.*
So please, before it's too late, join me and thousands of others to save the endangered species of the world."
