About the Artist

Using rich color, layered surfaces, and expressive gesture, Alexandra Bailliere creates paintings that move between observation and abstraction. Inspired by the raw quality of the landscape, her work focuses on the overlooked, the incongruous, and the places where unexpected beauty appears.
