Vivian Garriga

I was born in Cienfuegos, Cuba and grew up in my hometown of Lakeland, Florida. I paint with an obvious necessity to paint or perish, without fear at all to tread where no one else goes. I move my paintbrush with abandonment but also fierceness. I enjoy painting seascapes and naturalistic paintings sometimes flooded with color becoming passionate adventures in abstraction. I want my paintings to be beautiful, but most of all I want them to provoke thought.
