Welcome to Popping Bubbles Studio! Hi, I’m Ariel Tweto, an artist inspired by nature and driven to create playful, feel-good art. My hope is that my work makes people smile, sparks a little thought, and reminds us to embrace life fully, accept one another, and be kind. Most of all, I want my art to encourage play, presence, and not taking life too seriously.

 My Artistic Journey

My journey began during the hardest time of my life—losing my dad, who is forever a part of my soul. My aunt gave me a drawing journal, and the moment I picked up a pencil, my inner five-year-old came alive on the page.

What started as a way to cope with grief slowly grew into something that brought me joy, healing, and comfort. When I shared my drawings with family and friends and saw their faces light up with smiles, I realized I had found my purpose. If my art could bring happiness to the people I love, imagine how many smiles it could create in the world.

Inspiration & Process

All my pieces are inspired by nature, animals, and the simple joy of being outside—where I feel most alive. I approach each drawing with curiosity and ease, letting nature guide the process.

Nothing in my art is perfect, and nothing is “normal.” I celebrate quirks, surprises, and beautifully imperfect moments—because that’s what makes each piece unique.

 Why I Create

For me, art is about spreading joy and kindness. If my work can make someone smile, inspire them to embrace life more fully, or remind them to be gentle with themselves and others, then I’ve done what I set out to do. Life is too short not to savor the moment and play with the people you love.
