I’m a big fan of figural artwork, and these paintings by Audrey Kawasaki are really gorgeous. All paintings have a wood canvas and include imagery that is both feminine, sensual, and a bit melancholy. Thanks to Mackenzie for the tip!
Cool Artist: Audrey Kawasaki
Wow wow wow! LOVE this. It has an almost surreal, art nouveau-ish quality to it…
Thanks for sharing, as always.
She has a LIveJournal with a large following, posts photos of her work and apt. too. she is too awesome.
I like her work alot, I really do. But I must admit that it makes me uncomfortable, as it seems as if the women are girls or sexualized adolescents. But I love that she uses the wood as a means of texture, rather than just a background.
I love Audrey’s work!
Very cool – stylish and subtly sexy! Thanks, Joy.
Lovely stuff. Kinda spooky but still lovely..
Is it me or is the girl on the bottom left Mandy Moore?

Gorgeous – there is something truly hauntingly beautiful in these pieces – almost Victorian, but still modern – I don’t know – I just know I am in love!
ooh…those are gorgeous!
I love Audrey’s Work. I have 3 of her prints at home. I found this cool set from the Smitten Show on Ebay. Now I have to save up for it!
