Meet the Artists
Take a moment to learn about each one of the collective's artists and what they do!
Hello! I’m Ocean Locke, a multidisciplinary artist and a co-founder of The Works Art Collective. I have a focus in ceramics, sculpture, and illustration. I also dabble in textiles, printmaking, and jewelry making. My central artistic passion is creating large-scale sculptures and decorative art objects, but I also enjoy work that highlights the joys and beauty of simple everyday objects by elevating them into unique, playful art pieces. I take joy in making art that can show off a person's personal tastes, reflect a mood, symbolize an important event, or simply bring happiness, over just being another machine-made object that takes up space. All my work is highly process-based and they serve as a space for me to explore and express ideas about aesthetics, kitsch, cuteness, gender, and the point and meaning behind why I create art.
I offer original works and fanart (art based around existing media), as well as commissions to create unique and individualized pieces. Shop all my work by clicking the link below!
NOTE: Commissions are not always open, but when they are there will be a listing titled “Commissions” that can be used to reserve a slot. Thank you!
Hello, Ally here! I’m a self-described dreamer and work-in-progress. I like to illustrate scenes that are fantastical and fun to the eye, but maybe a little mysterious. I am also influenced by my Japanese heritage and lean toward a playful, pop-art style. I hope to share my dreams with my art, so please have a look through my eyes.
I dabble in most mediums, looking to experiment and grow my skills endlessly. However, I work primarily in acrylic, watercolor, and gouache 2D, as well as digital art. As I work my way towards finding my artist identity, I hope that you can cheer me on through many kinds of art.
If you'd like to commission me, please click the link below and find the "Custom Commission" listing. The listing will be available when comissions are. I'm able to provide portraits in the above mediums, and would love to work with you to achive your vision!
Thank you!
