In the enchanting heart of Louisiana, where the air is thick with the whispers of history and the sighs of old stories, Loveday Funck began her artistic journey. Drawn by a passion for storytelling and the haunting beauty of New Orleans, she creates digital collage art that transforms the familiar into the surreal. Her pieces, rich with personal touches and antique imagery, invite viewers to step into a world where dark fairy tales unfold against the backdrop of the city’s storied past.
Loveday finds inspiration in the shadowy charm of New Orleans' centuries-old buildings and graveyards as well as the cypress swamps of Acadiana. Each artwork weaves together threads of history and fantasy, beckoning viewers into a realm where the macabre dances with whimsy. Displaying her distinctive sense of humor, she juxtaposes formal Victorian-era photography with contemporary animal portraits, crafting contrasts that resonate with a sense of play.
But her artistry extends beyond the canvas. A seasoned tarot reader for over thirty years, Loveday has created five tarot and oracle decks that reflect her journey of self-discovery and healing. As a survivor of narcissistic abuse, she channels her insights into her work, emphasizing the vital importance of self-love and compassion.
Through her YouTube channel, she offers guided meditations designed to help others align with their higher selves and navigate their own paths toward healing.
Loveday is also a published poet, with three collections that explore themes of resilience and transformation.
Through her social media, she shares wisdom on recognizing red flags in relationships and nurturing self-compassion, fostering a supportive community of kindred spirits.
