Creator Bio
Shelby, or @shelbycatcreates across platforms, is a multipassionate creative, writer, and artist from Florida. Her art and writing explore melancholy, horror, dark femininity, and queerness through a supernatural lens. She seeks to create work that’s equally thought-provoking and bone-chilling. She also balances this with a 10+ year corporate copywriting and senior marketing career.
Her personal “why” through her creations: To express heartfelt truth through mindful discovery. To reflect on lessons we endure – especially as women – when we feel broken. Many times, we discover we’re not broken, just reformed. In Japanese culture, instead of discarding broken dishware, the pieces are fused together with gold. This is called kintsugi. To value the newer versions of ourselves, is what she seeks to help others remember about themselves in her art and creations. Their own power.
