Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Announces Unexpected New Career After Welcoming Baby
Gypsy-Rose Blanchard is tapping into her creative side as she revealed a surprising new career path over the weekend.
The Lifetime reality star launched a new Instagram and TikTok account on Sunday (August 3) under the name BlownBeauty Art. The pages include a series of photos of painted canvases, created by using the “Blow Dryer Art” technique. Also known as the “Dutch pour,” this method involves using acrylic paints and a blow dryer to create unique, abstract patterns.
Blanchard shared more in a video she uploaded to the account, saying, “Hi everyone, welcome to my new art page. I’m excited to share my creations with everyone.”
She continued, “Art is something that I think resonates with a lot of people because, with abstract art, it doesn’t have to be perfect — and I’ve never been one of those girls that colored inside the lines… So, I’m excited to make something special for everyone.”

Blanchard, who served nearly eight years in prison for her role in the 2015 murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, spoke about how the hobby has given her peace, and now she wants to share that with others.

“I would love to create pieces for people to bring them joy and happiness; in life, we go through things that sometimes are really hard, so if we could find one thing that brings us peace and centers us inside our soul, then it’s worth doing and sharing,” she stated. “So, I am more than happy to share my passion with you guys and I hope you like it!”
Growing up, Blanchard was a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a disorder where a parent or guardian either makes up fake symptoms or causes real symptoms to make it look like the child is sick.
In 2015, Blanchard’s then-boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, killed Dee Dee. He was sentenced to life in prison, while Blanchard was convicted of second-degree murder and handed a 10-year sentence.
Following her early release from prison in December 2023, Blanchard filed for divorce from her estranged husband, Ryan Anderson, and rekindled her romance with her former flame, Ken Urker. She and Urker welcomed their first child, Aurora, in December 2024, which was documented on the second season of Lifetime’s Life After Lock Up.

I don't understand why you guys keep posting about this murderer. If you'd actually do your research, you'd know about all her lies, manipulation, and how she could've easily gotten away from her mother. Her mother was never diagnosed with MBP; if anything, she would've been diagnosed with a fictitious disorder. YouTube creators with zero journalismbackgrounds have done a better job than you so-called journalists. All you have to do is obtain her FOIA records, and you'll see all the lies and inconsistencies in Gypsy's story. The justice system failed Dee Dee and Nicholas Godejohn. I just don't understand why you keep making this murderer look like an innocent victim. Her childhood wasn't perfect, but she did have medical conditions and needed the surgeries she received and the feeding tubes. She has a chromosomaldisorder, and many of her procedures were warranted. Did Dee Dee lie and fabricate stuff? Yes, but she didn't deserve to be murdered. Just do some research; it's all out there for you. Stop making her "famous." Besides, she won't be an "artist" for very long because she never sticks to anything she does.

I agree with Jess. She is a murderer. She should not be getting any recognition. Stop making her famous and act like she is an innocent person. Yes it's terrible what her mother did to her.

Infact Dede was very sick. I believe she abused her mother if u ask me. Didn't you see the interview where Gypsy said....I thought about waiting until she passed on her own......but that would have taken too long and I wanted to have a family n children. She wasn't abused. Watch her interviews n look into both of their health you will see the truth

James 3:5–8
In the same way the tongue is a small member and yet has great pretensions. Consider how small a fire can set a huge forest ablaze.
The tongue is also a fire. It exists among our members as a world of malice, defiling the whole body and setting the entire course of our lives on fire, itself set on fire by Gehenna.
For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by the human species,
but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. “Let the girl rebuild her life. We all make mistakes, and if she’s going to be judged, it will be by God — not by others. No human being is pure enough to do so.”

What does God say about judging others?????
What does Jesus say about forgiveness????
What does the Bible say about fools who judge others and the plank in their eye is pretty big!

She stole the name blown beauty art. Murders shouldn't be able to make money on their art per son of Sam laws.

Who cares, she's doing what makes her happy and everyone deserves to be happy. She's not my favorite person. But at the same time I'm not spending my days bashing her. If she's making a better life for herself then she deserves to do that.

If she wants to do something meaningful with her life, she should be advocating for Nicholas Godejohn to be released from prison into a mental hospital. He is in prison because of her. And she ought to be doing community service for the rest of her life. Her mother was a monster, but murder is murder.

This person is not a victim of anything but being born stupid and cruel, and her art is very basic and lame.

No this woman was deceitful in turning off her TikTok with 9.8 followers to not be mass unfollowed on her bday. She then reactivated under her "art page" to scam followers and charge them $120 plus shipping?!? Her followers are dropping to 9.3 million with 10s of thousands continuing bc no one likes fraud! Also let's not forget she told Nick in texts she could sell her art when she planned her mother's demise.
