Sofia Arnold paintings

I fea­tured the work of Sofia Arnold last year, and she’s the type of artist whose work I think about from time to time; it real­ly sticks with me.

Sofi­a’s work — the style, col­ors and themes — res­onate with me. Her newest paint­ings fea­ture mys­te­ri­ous beings, light emerg­ing from dark­ness, and col­or choic­es that pit the mud­dy with con­ven­tion­al­ly beau­ti­ful col­ors. All around, she makes inter­est­ing com­par­isons with­in her paint­ings, both the­mat­i­cal­ly and through her cho­sen medium.

I recent­ly reflect­ed on illus­tra­tors and image mak­ers whose work has influ­enced me over the past 8 years, and cat­a­loged them on this web­site. I would say Sofi­a’s work fits right in.
