"Garden of Peonies" Fine Art Print

Asya Zahia Colie

is a French painter who grew up south of France and currently lives in NC. Creativity has been a part of her life since childhood. She has always been drawn to sketching. It was not until her early forties, that she picked up a paintbrush to create art. Before becoming an artist, Asya worked in the hair and fashion industry.

As an artist, she truly began to live life as the person she was always meant to be. Many things influence her work, and she is constantly seeking new ideas & styles.

Using acrylic and mixed techniques on canvases sometimes dinged and patched, Asya expresses her interest in the processes and transformations of that which surrounds her with her distinct, bold, elegant style that merges abstract with the representational.

• “Contemporary figurative abstract portrait, bold in color and rich in emotional depth.”
• “Mixed media work inspired by cubism and Mediterranean light.”
• “A modern portrait capturing presence, emotion, and timeless form.”
• “Expressionist abstraction with Franco-Algerian roots and Provençal influence.”
