I am Gabriela Landaverde and I make paintings and textile artwork. I create free-flowing art inspired by nature and feminine themes, incorporating a contemporary take on the Dominican painting style. I honor my heritage by using loose brushstrokes and bright colors. My art style has daydream qualities with mystical imagery that make the natural appear unnatural. I make paintings ranging from ink, watercolor, acrylic, and oil. My textile artwork includes weaving, crochet, sewing, and embroidery.
