open for feedback, thanks!

TaLisa. Artist Statement
The images I paint are symbols of strength and diversity, which is a reflection of my family and cultural background. My work illuminates universal beauty. I’m attracted to many types of flowers, often complex and colorful arrangements that I incorporate into my work. I study botanical illustrations to understand their function and design from an inside-out perspective. Besides nature, the simple elegance of black and white typography is also intriguing. This diversity of design elements is my natural aesthetic. As a mixed media painter, I use contemporary and traditional art techniques. Combining spray paint, ink, and oil to create expressive marks in a soulful and sophisticated manner.

interesting question. i don’t intentionally create paintings thinking… “i want the viewer to feel ____ when they see this.” i have collected feedback about what others think about my work when they see it (empowering, bold, blissful, to name a few). but perhaps i should take more control and ownership of the message (that’s why i’m here 🙂 i know i want a very positive message. i’d want my devoted collectors to look at my work, appreciate uniqueness and elegance just from the piece. like there is something different about this painting.. cant exactly put my finger on it, but whatever it is, i need to buy it.
