Lay'Na Anderson

"The lessons I learned allowed me to create a 15 year career as a Makeup Artist for film and television. As a Makeup Artist I use my talent to tell the stories of others and now through my art I am telling the stories that resonate within me." 

 

Artist statement

Lay’Na Anderson’s body of work encompasses the power of undefined lines and negative space, exploring the thought of colour and texture whilst playing with the idea of bold and blended. An avid daydreamer, Lay’Na’s technique of layering and removing colour while creating texture, tells a story that draws the viewer in. The final result is a visual record of blended combinations and contrast in depth, with an ethereal, dreamy feel throughout.

“I work primarily with acrylics as a medium and mixed media to create texture. My mark making includes drips, stippling and blotting. Growing up I was always in one art class or another. The lessons I learned allowed me to create a 15 year career as a Makeup Artist for film and television. As a Makeup Artist I use my talent to tell the stories of others and now through my art I am telling the stories that resonate within me."
