World Traveler at Home in Cultural Crossroads
Asha grew up in the Philippines, and traveled extensively before choosing the United States as her home in 1992. She has extensive training in charcoal drawing, oil, chinese watercolor painting and fabric design. She fuses all her knowledge together into a rich mixed media process.
In her paintings, Asha presents chaos as the perfection that it is, allowing for complete surrender.
Her painting transports you from reality to a vibrant, mystical and abstract world, where you are the story teller, creating and interpreting your own stories.
"My process in painting is one which is more meditative and intuitive. I experience calmness, peacefulness and solitude. I believe that making art feels good and brings pleasure to others. Looseness and uncertainty, above all, are important to my interpretation of the mysterious energy of the spirit." |
