Watercolor, Acrylic, Art, Prints, Quotes
A self-supporting, self-taught artist for almost 30 years, Raphaella paints from her heart and expresses her love of nature, words, and people. The common thread in her artistic expression is a mastery of color. Sometimes an upheaval, such as the flood waters of Hurricane Helene in September of 2024, ushers in new perspective, new beginnings, new expression and new appreciation of the beauty of life that remains. Focusing on joy, Raphaella’s current paintings explore the relationship between color, texture, blossoms, stems, and beauty in abstract blooming gardens. They are a celebration of and a thank you to Nature. Visit her on the 2nd floor of Trackside Studios, 375 Depot St in the River Arts District or online at www.heartfulart.com.
