Day Dreamer Painting

Los Angeles based artist Ooty Moorehead has a true passion for abstract mixed media. Her half Japanese mixed race identity is central to her vision which is based on movement and energy that ties back to a minimal, wabi sabi aesthetic. Her strong compositions and use of color to communicate her ideas were honed at Art Center College of Design where she graduated top of her class as a Graphic Designer. These ideas were refined when she ran her own design studio. Her recent work with watercolor ink mixed with a variety of materials such as Yupo paper, textiles, and adhesives express her sense of abandon through a passion for color, movement, and texture. Her work entices the viewer to explore different emotions with each gaze as the subtle composition pulls their eye into and around the paintings. Ooty has been showing privately for years.
