Hi, I’m Maribel, the artist behind Jolly Dragons! I’m a Spanish-American creator with a passion for all things vibrant and whimsical. My work is inspired by the simple joys in life—food, animals, plants, and the beauty of nature. Living in Cape Cod with my family, I’m constantly inspired by the ocean and coastal life, which plays a huge role in my art.

Jolly Dragons is my way of combining my love for creativity and playfulness. The name says it all—dragons are mythical, powerful, and magical creatures, but the ones I create are happy, playful, and full of positive energy. They soar with strength, but they’re also filled with warmth and joy—just like my art!

I work with a mix of digital and traditional mediums, including Procreate, watercolors, acrylics, gouaches, and markers, to bring my ideas to life. I’m all about creating art that brings a smile, and I hope my work adds a little joy to your day!
