Be Artfully Happy! began in 2022 when Desra Harrington launched her creative business under the name Artfully Happy: The Art of Healing. In 2024, the brand evolved into Be Artfully Happy! — a name that reflects the warmth, joy, and purpose behind every project.Desra’s journey as an artist started in 2011 during her own path of healing from abuse and trauma. Through faith, perseverance, and the unwavering support of her husband, Duane, she discovered the restorative power of creativity.Out of that experience came a remarkable talent for acrylic painting. Entirely self-taught, Desra’s work is a true expression of resilience, hope, and personal transformation.Today, Be Artfully Happy! brings creativity to the community through face painting, murals, senior painting sessions, private art lessons, custom artwork, and the restoration of treasured pieces. Every service is rooted in the belief that art can heal, inspire, and bring people together.
