Our Background
Personal Profile
Hello!
My name is Anu Redway
I'm an acrylic mixed-media painter, jewelry designer, people enthusiast, and lifelong creative! I’m inspired by theology, psychology, nature, and fashion as well as the masterful works of Jackson Pollock, Kehinde Wiley, Tahlia Stanton, Salvador Dali, and Chuck Close, to name a few. My art style leans toward surrealist contemporary.
​
While the “art gene” runs deep in my family-my father being an artist himself, and my mother a former fashion designer-it was my fine art education that gave me a well-rounded understanding of translating creativity through several mediums.
My heart strings currently reside in acrylic, digital acrylic, and clay jewelry, which stems from my studies in painting, sculpture and fashion.
​
My goal for each painting is to capture that existential experience of the inward journey. The external is merely information about the internal. I use the art as a visual parable to communicate love, value, and the human experience amidst using people, nature and my cultural Nigerian roots with a bit of color theory to draw connection to the works!
​
In laymen's terms, I use my art to remind people they are not alone, and they are beautiful, they are unique, and they matter!
​
Every day is a balancing act as a full time artist, but it's been quite the adventure!
