ART QUEENS SOCIETY MEMBER

Bruna Silva

Bruna was born and raised in Brazil. Growing up with her mother and her grandmother being creatives (her mother is a retired hair stylist and her grandmother crocheted, knitted, and sewed), Bruna was always surrounded by some form of art.Bruna learned how to draw with charcoal in high school during her exchange student program in Canada, but soon her program ended, and she had to face other endeavors in life. It wasn’t until after she graduated that she had the opportunity to get involved with graphic design, when she opened her own business, designing visual identities for events in Brazil, until she made the decision to move to United States in 2015, to the state of Georgia, where she currently resides.Bruna felt the urge to make art again after becoming a mother in 2019. She felt like art brought her back to her true, authentic self. She learned how to paint in watercolor, by drawing and painting commissioned pet portraits. She was very surprised with how quickly she picked up on some techniques and got curious about where her skills could take her. She hasn’t stopped growing ever since. As a self-taught artist, she thinks it’s important to keep learning from different sources and teachers. Her background in graphic design was essential for her artistic growth.Bruna enjoys the wild and freedom and appreciates the little things in life. She loves spending time with her son in her studio and allowing him to paint with her. She feels drawn to abstract art, along with feminine figurative works due to the strong and important image women have had in her life. Being authentic and unapologetically herself is her passion. She is excited to turn her life experiences into meaningful artwork and is currently working on her portfolio pieces.

As a mixed media artist, I strive to create art that evokes strong emotions. I hope to spark creativity by encouraging the viewer to see the world from a different perspective through my paintings. I dive deep into my emotions and in my life experiences to bring meaning to each work. With bold brush strokes and mark making, I allow myself to let go of expectations and external pressures, tapping into my innermost creative impulses. Glazing and layering are a big symbol to me of being as transparent as I can be, and through paint drips I hope to show the viewer that there is beauty in letting go. My art is geared towards self-growth, acceptance, love, and being true to my core identity. Ultimately, I hope to inspire others to live their lives to the fullest, to take risks, cultivating a sense of freedom and fulfillment by embracing their unique essence and expressing themselves authentically.
