Boldly painted. Joyfully feminist.

self-portrait by Gwenn Seemel

Hi! I’m Gwenn Seemel.


I make brightly colored paintings that are both playful and intense, and I release all my work directly into the public domain, free for use by anybody for any reason. Because of that unusual choice, I was invited to give a TEDx talk in Switzerland. My art has appeared in Newsweek as well as on the cover of an Oxford University Press book.

Everything’s Fine, the coloring book
My current project is called Everything’s Fine.

It started out as a series of paintings about mental health, and it’s now a free high school art lesson plan as well as a coloring book that’s designed to help you embrace your complexity with creativity and kindness.
