I'm selling prints of 4 of my paintings in a collection called "Fierce Women who Follow their Dreams." These images represent the strength, power and beauty that women represent. I'm also selling cards made with Abstract Art paintings, each one unique. These card sets are perfect gifts for any occasion!
Step into Barbie's Pink World with Artist Tasha Powell. She is offering her JUST BE BOLD set of 8 Greeting Cards for $25.00. The painting is pink, bold and represents Fierce Women everywhere. Follow Your Passion. Be Nostalgic! Just Be Bold!
I seek to evoke emotions in the viewers of my work while leaving space for the viewer to conjure their own feelings or moods. For example, painting the back of a woman could invoke solitude, sadness or independence. The painting of a dancer could suggest joy while capturing grace and movement. I enjoy hearing reactions to my work as they allow me to see through the eyes of others and to use this vision to influence my painting.
I am refining my interpretive, impressionistic style by learning new skills and studying the works of other artists in order to create my own unique painting style. I have lived part time for eight years in and near Aix-en-Provence. I always feel so taken with the light, the beauty, the culture and with being in an environment that is rustic yet elegant and simply magical. I enjoy using the interplay of shifting light, background and reflection as it transforms a figure or landscape. My main medium is now oil painting.
I have been studying painting in a variety of mediums including pastels, oil, acrylic and mixed media but gravitate towards oil painting. I prefer impressionistic styles rather than realistic styles. My objective for those viewing my work is for them to understand how my art allows me to re-create moods that change based on the luminosity of the colors I choose. I am drawn to paint pensive female figures that signify strength and beauty.
