You don’t need fancy art supplies to be able to create beautiful art. Just ask Katy Lipscomb.

This Georgia-based illustrator says her goals in life are to be a good person and share her art with the world.

“I have a wide array of inspirations and artists that I look up to, but I have to say that since I was little my number one inspiration has been my mom,” Lipscomb told Bored Panda. “From the moment I could hold a pencil and draw, she ensured that I had a place to create. In our first house, this was just a little nook underneath the basement stairs.”

In this series, she shares her breathtaking illustrations of wild animal spirits drawn in pencil and marker.
