Artist Research: Audrey Kawasaki



I am in love with Audrey Kawasaki's work. There is something ethereal, subtle, and mysterious about her paintings. She primarily paints with oil paint on wood panels.



Looking at her paintings, I would never have guessed that she used oil paint. You can definitely see cross-hatching and the images look so flat and smooth.



I think the portraits are beautiful, although you can tell that she probably paints mostly from imagination, since all of her faces look the same. However, that doesn't really bother me. I love how she combines portraits with patterns. The way she paints hair is amazing, too. She makes it so long, flowy, and expressive.
