Beautiful Chaos - Unframed Painting

It all started with a colorful coffee cup. That one, small act of defiance gave Deena the confidence she needed to make the next bold move, and then the next. And, soon, she found herself with enough strength to rediscover the color in her life. Armed with an MBA in Marketing from the Marshall School of Business at USC, a BSBA from the Olin School of Business at Washington University and minor in fine art from Washington University in St. Louis, Deena spent years using her artistic talents as a marketing branding executive. She worked with creatives and business executives, ensuring that color and form communicated the desired branding message. Today, Deena uses her skills and talents to play with color, opacity and minimalist form. Deena believes that art should spark an emotional response, and works to convey peace, calm and joy through color choice. By meticulously controlling things that are within her control, Deena creates an environment for the watercolor to "do it's thing" and provide all of the wonderful chaotic and beautiful visual effects. It's the serenity prayer in action. Each piece is painted with the intention of well-being and growth. Life can be unexpected and wonderful, and Deena's art looks to synthesize all of the complexities of wonder and growth into simple forms and color. Deena works primarily in watercolor and likes to play with the idea that simple marks can make a bold impact. Simple. Bold. Bright. Modern. Colorful.
