About

Welcome! I'm Brett Blumenthal, the artist behind all of the artwork you see here. Thank you so much for considering my art and illustrations for your home. I hope you love my fine art and home decor as much as I love creating it!

In a world where nature speaks softly, I found my voice as an artist. My journey began as a self-taught illustrator, sparked by the joy of creating nursery art for my son. What started as a personal endeavor blossomed into a profound passion for painting that resonates with the beauty and rawness of our planet.

Educated in architecture, I learned the importance of structure, but it was the wild—the intricate details of wildlife and breathtaking landscapes—that truly captured my heart. My art reflects this connection to nature, crafted with meticulous care in a style that defies the usual boundaries of watercolor. Each brushstroke reveals a commitment to detail, resulting in pieces that often surprise viewers with their photographic quality.

2024 was a pivotal year in my artistic journey. Speaking at Cornell University on the Transformative Power of Art in Wildlife Conservation was a deeply impactful honor that solidified my mission. Competing on an international stage, I became a finalist and then the Elizabeth Hosking watercolor award winner of the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation's Wildlife Artist of the Year competition in London. Additionally, I was selected for exhibition in the annual Artists for Conservation exhibit in Vancouver, Canada. These transformative experiences ignited a newfound passion within me to take a leap of faith and pursue wildlife conservation art and fine art seriously.

I am irresistibly drawn to the stories untold—the creatures fighting for their existence amidst climate change, habitat loss, and human impact. This empathy for animals fuels my desire to be their voice, inspiring others to see the value and beauty of wildlife and wild spaces.

My mission transcends aesthetics; it's about igniting a movement. A portion of every sale is committed to wildlife conservation through organizations like 1% for the Planet. Art has the power to drive change, and with each piece I create, I strive to touch hearts and inspire action.

I envision my artwork connecting with those who share a love for nature and those who are yet to discover it. I aim to reach individuals who prioritize meaningful engagement with the world around them—people who understand that every brushstroke can help uplift the planet's voice.

Through my art, I seek to not only beautify spaces but to spark conversations around conservation. My dream is to create a world where every piece tells a story of hope and resilience, reminding us all of the importance of protecting our planet. Join me on this journey, and let’s create a legacy of love for the wild together.

Formal Bio

An internationally recognized and award-winning artist, Brett Blumenthal began her artistic journey as a self-taught watercolorist while pregnant with her son. A native of the Northeast and now based in Charlotte, NC, she was inspired to create her first collection of nursery art when she struggled to find pieces that would appeal to both her baby and to her and her husband. This became the foundation of Tiny Toes Design, a brand that brought her gentle, meaningful imagery into countless homes and pediatric spaces around the world.

As her work and vision grew, Brett felt a pull toward a deeper purpose: creating art that not only celebrated the beauty of animals and wild places but also inspired action to protect them. This led to the launch of Brett Blumenthal Art, a fine art collection dedicated to wildlife and conservation.

Drawn to realism, Brett depicts animals and landscapes with the intention of helping viewers truly connect with her subjects. Her work highlights the profound bond between humanity, the animal kingdom, and the natural world. Passionate about biodiversity and the protection of our planet’s fragile ecosystems, Brett donates a minimum of 10% of profits to conservation efforts worldwide.

Brett is a graduate of Cornell University’s Architecture School and also holds an MBA from Cornell, where she was a Park Fellow. Today, her art serves as both a creative expression and a call to action—reminding us of the beauty we stand to lose, and the responsibility we share in protecting it.
