Carla Cope
About
"I love being an artist, it is my passion. I love seeing the world in my twisted way. I translate my emotions into forms of expression for visual intrigue. I am a painter and a sculptor. My work is all about the spacial dimension and depth of field. I use colors and blends to layer up planes of movement, textures, and luminosity. I feel the space and atmosphere through my intuitional guidance. I use meditation and a quieting of the mind to discover these vignettes. They are the islands of my fantasy world that lives in my subconscious. My world is beautiful and I paint it to remember it as I see it."
