Ashley Fluellen's art is a celebration of imperfection and the power of pause. Through her portraits, she explores the concept of sovereignty; specifically, how our personal views and perspectives shape the stories we tell and the worlds we create. She uses abstract textures, unconventional framing, and bright colors to create a cohesive body of work, composed of diverse standalone pieces. Professionally, Ashley empowers creative leaders to resist perfectionism by tapping into their creativity. She partners with organizations to host arts-focused professional development workshops, helping teams find joy and authenticity in the creative journey. Her goal through this work is to inspire others to move beyond the pursuit of finding the 'right answer' and instead embrace the fun, messiness, and authenticity of engaging in a creative practice.
