Pure Art by Alessandra Maria

Alessandra Maria’s work is dark and rich.  One reason for this is her focus.  In a recent interview she explained,

Well - I don’t work with color! It’ll start to come in eventually (in certain areas), but my mind doesn’t work like a painters’ does. I see and compose work in terms of pattern, as opposed to light.. At first I perceived it as a serious disadvantage, but now I’ve found that it enables me to overcome some obstacles in interesting ways. It goes back to that Picasso quote, “If you have five elements available, use only four. If you have four elements, use three.” You can’t keep the intention of the piece pure if you’re too focused on balancing a bunch of irrelevant parts. (Supersonic)

Originally from Seattle, WA Alessandra Maria now lives and works in New York. You can see more of her work on Tumblr.  Thanks to Supersonic.
