About Ashley Buttercup

Ashley Buttercup is a textural and collage artist. She focuses on the relationships between unconsciousness, empowerment, and movement by allowing her execution to be guided by music. While there is a strategy to color and balance, being hearing-impaired requires primary focus on the music. This process allows her to let go of some control. Through dense paint strokes, she hopes to evoke sensations. When not painting gestural interpretations, she explores other avenues of art through landscape paintings and paper collaging. She is based in Brooklyn, NY.
