Floral Crazy Love Print

Twyla has been a professional artist for over 25 years. Her work is in over 75 corporate collections and has shown in galleries and museums internationally including the National Museum of Art; Osaka, Japan. Twyla creates in several styles and mediums- painting, monotypes, photography, digital, and includes large-scale original canvasses over 12 feet in length for corporate, hospitality, and healthcare projects. She graduated from the University of Iowa, B.A., and received a grant from the Enrico Donati Foundation in NYC, NY. Her art studies began with classical portrait and figurative painting and gradually turned to abstract. This led her to create large-scale abstract paintings. Wanting to re-examine her work and explore different directions to enhance creativity, she began the study of Sumi-e, Chinese brush painting, and Chinese calligraphy. She also studied Printmaking for five years with a master Printmaking Studio. Creating across many mediums has always kept her art innovative and the creativity flowing. The artist describes her art: "My art is both planned and intuitively created. I combine both the analytical and direct creative flow – often switching back and forth. Each medium dictates the process. I love to experiment with spontaneous brush stroke, line, and color and I am inspired by the Abstract Expressionist artists and Sumi-E Masters. I feel that my life experiences and my expansion as an artist are woven through me like DNA. It is who I am. It’s always my intent that what I put on canvas and paper tells a story or evokes a feeling that touches everyone’s being, bringing a higher level of inspiration and joy into their lives. By sharing my personal vision and emotion in painting, I hope to draw viewers closer to their own inner worlds." Website: www.TwylaArt.com Instagram @Twyla.artist
