Breaking Free - Limited Edition of 1 Print

Olan Quattro is a mixed media artist whose work explores memory and the mythologies we create of ourselves and our families. Born into a central California hippie community, Olan Quattro spent her early childhood surrounded by artists and self-described revolutionaries. Quattro is a third generation artist. Quattro's artistic perspective is influenced from her bohemian upbringing. Every Friday was spent at gallery openings and every summer was filled with art classes. Quattro's art process is about the layering and removal of paper and paint. She creates texture with images partly obscured, text mostly hidden. Her art tells a visual story of both what is visible and what lies beneath.
