About The Artist

Hello! I'm Ariel Drain, a Tulsa-born and raised artist. Growing up, art played a big role in shaping who I am. I was always shy and quiet, but creating gave me a way to share pieces of my personality without having to say much. I started out following drawing tutorials on YouTube, and over time, my curiosity for other art forms grew.

It wasn’t until I attended the University of Tulsa—where I earned my BFA in Photography and a minor in Art History—that I truly began to explore those interests. That’s also where I discovered my love for photography. These days, I focus on capturing images and creating projects that reflect my family, myself, and the beauty I find in everyday life.

As I continue growing as both a photographer and an artist, I hope to make a meaningful impact on my community through my work.
