Who we are

Open Eye Studio was founded in early 2025 by two artists; Avery Eli Art (AEC) and Inez Art (AK). Together, we have created a studio in which the wonders of the natural world can be harnessed and shared with all who wonder also. Through various mediums, Open Eye Studio strives to honor nature and all it has to offer, especially in death.

You can find some of our work here on this page, and more at our Facebook and Instagram pages. Thanks for visiting!
