ARTISTS
Bryttany Mack
Bryttany, unlike most artists, wasn't always interested in pursuing art, let alone painting from a small age. Her story is a bit more unique. She always had the innate ability to see, but as fate would have it her body was forced to catch up when she was inadvertently placed into an art class. From there, her love affair with art began and with time her passion for painting came.

Being a native to Atlanta, it seemed God had everything divinely ordained that she go to SCAD Atlanta. Speaking through those around her, allowing her to fall in love with the campus during the tour. Post SCAD, she self taught herself to not only brand herself as a painter, but the essence a true artist. She expanded her repertoire to photography, 3D modeling, and illustration; God blessed her with the ability to expand her territory of expression.

Within her art career, she has been a part of three art shows (Black Girl Art Show, Conception Art Show, and a nonprofit art show for Feed Thee. She entered contests and completed personal projects for customers helping their visions come to life.

Bryttany Mack is available for private bookings

Available M, T, TH & F (any time), most Saturdays from 10am until 4pm, most Sundays after 1pm, and until 4pm on Wednesdays

Private tutoring, weddings, portraits, and events.

The Cottages These homes are where our families created special memories each summer when we would visit my best friend and her family. I took this image during the mid day as we pull away in a boat from the dock on the right. The little home is over 100 years old and has to be torn down due to water damage. It was my favorite. I created this piece for their family as a gift to remember the beauty of these special places.

This is a birthday card for a dear friend. I painted it with a combination of Daniel Smith, Winsor&Newton, Mozart Komorebi metallic watercolor paints, and Chinese White for the babies breath, which I started with negative space, but soon realized it needed some help from touching up with Chinese White. The Micron pen came at the very end. First, I wet the paper, and only for the dalia blossoms, trying to keep their shape and outline. Then I dropped in the colors to follow each individual c
