Oleander Lupien Smith

Oleander is a 28-year-old transmasculine illustrator originally from Attleboro, MA and currently based in Springfield, MA, where they live with their boyfriend and two crazy cats. They graduated Magna Cum Laude from the New Hampshire Institute of Art (now the Institute of Art and Design at New England College) with a BFA in Illustration, and currently work in custom framing full-time while selling their work at local markets and displaying at small galleries. Oleander loves punk, metal, and goth aesthetics, monsters and horror, video and tabletop gaming, and music. They do contractual cat sitting as a side job and love all animals to bits, especially the “undesirable” ones. They’ve always been the “wolf kid”, and it certainly has always shown in  their art.
