Noelle Dass is the artist behind Artimals™, a delightful collection of whimsical and vibrant paintings that celebrate life, humor, and the joy of animals and nature. Her artistic journey began at the age of three, when she first grasped a pencil. With busy and often absent adults, creating art became her way of crafting her own happy places. Later, she pursued formal training in classical oil painting, achieving notable success. However, she eventually found realism stifling and chose to unleash her imagination through her signature style: stylized animals, bold, colorful, and often humorous works that use her love of animals to reflect human emotions like happiness, love, friendship, bliss, and playful silliness - elements essential for a fulfilled life.

Noelle lives in the Inland Northwest with her family and a menagerie of beloved animals who inspire her daily. When she’s not painting or sketching new ideas, she enjoys gardening, volunteering, exploring nature, and an intentional focus on finding beauty in everyday moments. Her work has been featured in galleries, pediatric hospitals, veterinarian offices, and private collections nationally and internationally. She is truly grateful for the over 20 years of positive reception of her art!

Beyond her artistic endeavors, Noelle is deeply committed to giving back. She donates a portion of her proceeds to organizations that support both animal welfare and human causes, ensuring her art contributes to meaningful change in the world. This generosity is made possible by the support of those who connect with her work, that is, you - Thank you!
