Artwork location: United States

This art piece is inspired by a photograph of Audrey Hepburn. She was a pop icon from the classical Hollywood. Audrey Hepburn was a British actress and humanitarian. Recognized as both a film and fashion icon. This art piece has bright bold colors just as vibrant as her life. The artist added her unique texture style on the bath robe and towel. The metallic colors shine like Audrey's vibrant personality. This piece would be a beautiful addition to any living space.

Presentation

Artist Statement:

Art has no barrier, it doesn't judge, it calms our inner soul, and has the power to bring out the most honest emotions in people. 

I am an experienced artist based in the United States. My paintings have been exhibited nationally and in Italy. In addition my art has been featured in publications such as HOW Magazine. I refer to my multi-layered technique as StrataLife, as it investigates the vast layers of experience we carry around. Through different shades of colors, textures, reflections and movement...I invite the viewer to reflect upon themselves as if looking into a mirror of one's soul.


Education:

I have been to art magnet schools since I was in middle school. I graduated from Design and Architecture Senior High in Miami FL. Studies included fine art, and fashion design. I have owned an operated a faux finishings business for 15+years. I have designed, and painted artistic finishes on walls, including mural work, and furniture refinishing. My work is displayed on walls in homes, and businesses from Florida to California.

1992 M.A.D.D art poster contest 2nd place award in Miami FL.
