Aram Amini

Born in Montreal, raised in New York and currently based in Austin, Texas, Aram has had a passion for art as far back as she can remember. Her father, a jewelry designer, noticed her talent when she was eight years old and from then encouraged her to delve into her artistic side. She carried her passion for creating throughout her years by painting, taking on commissions doing murals, and making costumes from scratch. Once she moved to Austin, she decided she was ready to chase her dream of being a full-time artist.

Aram's largest form of inspiration comes from design and fashion, including anything from fabrics and textiles to runway shows and magazines. She's constantly exploring new styles and mediums, including metallic & acrylic paints, high flow acrylics, as well as resin on canvas. "Most artists have a style or brand, but I find it hard to stick to one thing. I love trying out new techniques and starting a new look with each collection. I also tend to get lost exploring other peoples works, both established and emerging, reading about their stories, looking at their studios and picturing how they work in that space. I take a little piece of every artist I study with me, and try to bring it into my own work, in my own way....
