Hi, I’m Stacy Newgent – a mixed media artist and graphic designer based in Long Beach, California. I’ve been a photographer, graphic designer, an art director, a photo editor and now an illustrator.
Janky Pets began this past spring with a simple idea: I wanted to make a “Who are the dogs in your neighborhood?” zine. Living in Long Beach, I’m surrounded by so many adorable dogs, and I wanted to get to know them all. Soon after, a few people asked if I could draw portraits of their pets. I said, “Sure—but, my drawings are kind of janky.” And that’s how Janky Pets was born haha. I'd love to make one for you :)
I specialize in colorful, fun artwork and quirky designs.
I'm currently open to freelance opportunities, collaborations, and art commissions. Whether you need custom artwork, packaging design, or something totally offbeat, I’d love to hear from you.
Thanks for looking :)
