Zhora was born in Missoula and raised in the state of Montana. Being surrounded by her grandfather’s Arabian horses growing up, she began drawing horses around the age of three to express her love for the magnificent creatures. She specialized in horses until her teenage years, when she began to self-teach herself portraiture.
Zhora is currently tattooing at Altered Skin Tattoos in Missoula, Montana. She especially loves creating, but not limited to: animals, anime, cartoons, fantasy, botanicals, portraiture, mythos, and renditions of paintings. In her spare time, Zhora draws those that inspire and push her to grow as a person and as an artist. She is fascinated with the adrenaline and excitement that comes with the preparation of a piece for an inspiration, always perfecting every little detail before presenting her art to the world.
Art is Zhora’s escape, her therapy, and her voice for connecting with the people in this world. It is Zhora’s hope that her art will no longer be therapy just for herself, but for her clients as well.
