"Orchid collection" Painting

My name is Layla Moody. I am a Interior Designer, contemporary abstract artist, as well as a small business owner, that resides in the Houston, Texas area. I have been involved in art and design since I was a child. I studied Visual Communications and Photography at The Art Institute of Houston in 1995-1997 and Interior Design in 2004-2006. I have worked in many mediums including but not limited to stained glass, glass fusing, mixed media, resin, watercolor, alcohol ink, and acrylic paint. As many seem to fear it, my specialty and passion is color. I enjoy the challenge of creating and changing a mood based on integrating colors, color schemes, as well as design elements, sometimes serious, sometimes whimsical. In every original painting, I generously incorporate metallic and iridescent paint to add sparkle, depth, and interest to each piece. I hope you find my art inspiring, beautiful, and mood evoking. Many thanks for visiting!
