My name is Rylana Townsend, an artist from Maastricht, a passionate animal lover and someone with a fascination for fly agarics (red mushrooms with white spots). Using pouring and texture techniques, I create both permanent collections and custom-made artworks.

What once started as a hobby became my life’s work. For the first time, it felt like the missing piece had fallen into place. Where studies and regular jobs never gave me true fulfillment, painting did.

In 2024, I made a mental shift: I committed to fitness, healthy living, and self-discipline. It gave me energy and showed me that mindset can change everything. At the beginning of 2025, I carried that mindset into my art.

“Show up, even without motivation. Go for it, even when it’s hard.”

Today, I paint from that inner fire. Each artwork is proof to me that you can reinvent yourself again and again, that you can turn emptiness into energy, and doubt into passion.

My art isn’t just about paint and canvas. It’s about growth, mindset, and the courage to follow what your heart truly wants.
