Audrey Byrd Art is a creative outlet and source of expression for Audrey to show her love for the human body outside of her professional career. She is a family physician in her second year of residency and loves the parallels between art and medicine.Born of the COVID-19 pandemic, she began making art and participating in local exhibitions and markets to share her passions with others.

Her bold colors and textures act to accentuate the femininity that is often so harshly judged and censored by the public eye. Her main goal as a painter is to help people fall in love with their beauty and recognize their divinity. Audrey uses all reclaimed + repurposed canvases, frames, and miscellaneous oddities to create her pieces, to be as sustainable and unique as possible. She manipulates her supplies to create one-of-a-kind paintings and sculptures that leave viewers thinking “how did she do that?” and inspire them to try creating their own masterpieces.

“A lot of what I hope to embody in my medical practice is reflected in my art – that women deserve to feel sexy and powerful and worthy; that they deserve to celebrate their beauty and feel empowered in their skin. I want to use color and texture to accentuate the parts of femininity that I sometimes struggle to appreciate about myself. More than anything, my work has helped me accept my beauty and power and helps me feel confident enough to empower other women in my professional life. I hope to incorporate creativity and artistry into my medical career to inspire change in the world of medicine.” – Audrey Byrd
