About The Artist

Devon Raquel Josephine Ridge was born in Pittsburgh, PA and has been creating art since childhood. While never drawn to sports or typical extracurriculars, she found her path early through private art lessons and creative exploration. Art continued to shape her life through her years in North Carolina and into her studies at the University of Colorado Boulder, where she focused on Psychology and Studio Arts.

She has since built a life rooted in creativity, community, and travel. Devon began her festival journey working with Chris Morphis, where she gained experience in live painting and vending within the visionary art scene. She now travels and vends alongside her partner, Armani Spensieri, who owns Threads by Armani, expanding their artistic presence across festivals and events nationwide.

Devon is currently completing her Master’s degree in Transpersonal Art Therapy at Naropa University. Her work merges expressive visual art with the healing principles of art therapy, guided by a passion for supporting others through creativity and connection.

Each summer, she continues to travel as a live painter, muralist, and vendor, finding purpose in creating art that brings people together. Her dream remains the same: to live as a professional traveling artist while offering the transformative power of art therapy to individuals and communities in need.
