Souheir rawlings

 

While I have created and studied art for many years, it really was when I attended SACI (Studio Art Center International) in Florence, Italy, that I focused on the Expressive Arts and how very emotionally “connected” I felt during my studies there, working under the guidance of artist/instructor Manfredi who taught me about the “Psychology of the Portrait”.

My drawings and paintings reflect my desire to “see” the inner expressive nature of people.  I use color and line in a way that shows emotion and character in my figures and portraits.  I am influenced by symbolism in art and am continually attempting to convey a connection between myself and the images I choose to represent in my art.
