I fell in love with the images of Audrey Kawasaki very early on while "collecting images" online as I often do for random projects. Her very feminine way and subtle tease about her images are intense in the reserse effect. What I didnt expect is how her art would continusly creep its way into my creative discovery and "Image Collection". A.K.'s continued excalation of work over the years only show a countious outlet in what she does with no signs of climax in the near future.
Anything addtional to be said would best be said in her bio below

Info Bio:
The themes in Audrey Kawasaki's work are contradictions within themselves. Her work is both innocent and erotic. Each subject is attractive yet disturbing. Audrey's precise technical style is at once influenced by both manga comics and Art Nouveau. Her sharp graphic imagery is combined with the natural grain of the wood panels she paints on, bringing an unexpected warmth to enigmatic subject matter.
The figures she paints are seductive and contain an air of melancholy. They exist in their own sensually esoteric realm, yet at the same time present a sense of accessibility that draws the observer to them. These mysterious young women captivate with the direct stare of their bedroom eyes.
Audrey updates her online journal frequently with new work, pieces in progress, information about shows and more. http://i-seldom-do.livejournal.com/
