About Me
Vibrant Pet Portraits That Celebrate Love, Loss, and Everything In Between
Hi, I’m Kim—the artist behind ScuzziMia Art.
This journey began not from joy, but from heartbreak. After losing my two beloved Old English Sheepdogs, I felt a deep emptiness I couldn’t put into words. In that stillness, I picked up my pens and brushes again—something I hadn’t done in years. What started as a way to process grief slowly transformed into something beautiful: bold, expressive pet portraits that pulse with color, character, and heart.
Today, I’m a mixed media artist specializing in contemporary animal portraits that don’t just capture what pets look like—they celebrate who they are. My style is instantly recognizable for its fearless color—hot pinks, fiery oranges, lavenders, electric blues—and the way I blend bold, textured strokes with soft, emotional nuance. Every piece I create is a tribute. A story. A celebration of the joy, mischief, and love our pets bring into our lives.
Clients often tell me my work makes them laugh, cry, and smile all at once. That’s the magic I aim for—because for me, this isn’t just art. It’s connection. It’s memory. It’s honoring the animals that leave paw prints on our hearts.
Through ScuzziMia Art, I also explore other passions like Australian botanicals, expressive color theory, and creating functional art that brings beauty into everyday life. Whether you’re here for a custom portrait, a print, or a piece that just makes you feel something—I’m so glad we’ve found each other.
