ALIZA AND HER MONSTERS

 

ARTIST STATEMENT

Aliza is a contemporary wildlife artist who was born and raised on a tiny island near Seattle.  Painting animals was always an escape from the chaos around her growing up. Aliza and Her Monsters describes her journey of growth, struggle, and solace as an artist. Aliza's 'monsters' reflect hidden pasts, fears, monsters unseen, and our yearning for human connection.

The animals, her monsters, represent the wild hearted spirit within us all. Her visionary animals and imaginative landscapes invite viewers to re-wild and reconnect with the natural world.
With love and reverence, Aliza paints the menagerie of her monsters, bringing their ferocity and curiosity to life.
