HI! I’m DC Ice. I’m an illustrator disguised as a fine artist. I’ve been illustrating sharp toothed critters and antique treasures since graduating art school with a BFA in Illustration in 2003.

My paintings are a mischievous battle between snarly critters and sweet furry folk. Pairing my paintings with vintage frames surrounds each piece with soul. The hunt for the antique frames is almost as much fun as creating the paintings themselves.

The OBSESSION I have with illustration lead me to scratchboard, where I can turn my drawings into paintings. I treasure the process of creating stories through art while trying to spark nostalgia. My illustrated antiques (record players/ boomboxes / tea kettles) are often as edgy as my critter's teeth. However, flowers and nature soften the blow on the razor blade drawn paintings.

My husband (@__Woolves__) and I have a shop that is filled with our paintings and handmade goods. If you are ever in the Minneapolis area, our shop at the Northrup King Building is open every Saturday from 12-4pm. We hope to see you in person someday but are thrilled that you found us here!
