Arianne enjoys creating worlds touched by fantasy and dreams in her art. Sometimes those worlds are a bit more realistic, sometimes a bit more surreal. Her favored media includes acrylic paint and graphite either on canvas or cotton paper. Arianne’s technique varies depending on the substrate. Her paintings on canvas are heavy and textural, while her paintings on paper are light and ethereal.
