Featured Artist Regina Argentin
Regina Argentin explores the subconscious in saturated color gradations that create distilled imagery layered into representational and abstract form. Her large paintings reflect the narrative with a mystic quality. Using parts of nature, wildlife and the divine feminine, she creates an ethereal landscape of mythological dystopian symbolism.

“My recent work reflects themes and characters from my graphic novel narratives. Introspective thoughts, dreams, devotion and melancholia are depicted within images of portraiture, adventure, supernatural situations, all within a framework of the connective relationship of human beings to nature and other species. The divine feminine, animal rights and spirituality are my central themes.”

Regina's favorite Artist Life product is the Washi Ruler Tape. She says it "is unique and useful. It can be used as a straight edge and measuring."
She then returned to her native city of Los Angeles to work in the film industry as an art director. In addition to art school, she received a masters degree in spiritual psychology. She continues to do fine art, exhibit, teach and has also established her own fine and decorative art business as well as a luxury vegan organic beauty product line.
