Running Against the World Artwork

Daisy-Anne is an abstract artist based just outside of Atlanta, GA. Her abstract paintings are intertwined with the art of storytelling, centering around themes of brokenness, healing, growth, renewal, and restoration. These abstracted narratives largely emphasize layers, texture, motion and color to create a language of her own. Daisy was formally educated in oil painting, graduating in 2004 with a BA in Studio Painting from Oglethorpe University. She went on to earn her BS in Nursing, in 2014 from Georgia State University. Currently, Daisy remains passionate about continuing her work as a registered nurse in both the emergency room and surgical services in the Atlanta area. Her love of science can be seen in her evolving and experimental processes. Daisy has moved from strictly oil painting to mixed media, including acrylics, spray paint, watercolor, collage, inks, gold leafing, thread, and resin on canvas, fabrics or wood. Salvaging discarded, surplus, neglected or broken materials to use has become a mainstay of her style. Daisy currently works out of her home studio and creates self-portrait narratives, abstracted narratives and expressionism.
