My artwork reflects a range of painting styles that include: figurative, surrealism, abstract expressionism, geometric, and mystical realism. I believe that art should create an emotional impact on its viewer. I use several layers of acrylic paint and lacquer to create an illuminating and lasting vision. By selecting dominant colors, lush textures and expressive patterns, my art conveys a break from traditional artistic boundaries. I am inspired by gold and orange and define my work as modern art with an eclectic and contemporary twist. Most of my paintings have been designed to complement existing architectural structures in residential homes and to provide a cohesive balance and quiet sense of peace to office or commercial business settings. I often use semi-precious gems, dried floral, beads, and other mixed media to add dazzle to some paintings. Please see website for more samples of my artwork: ivycreativedesigns.com
