Tara McPherson

    An artist based in New York City, her work explores people and their peculiar ways. Her characters seem to radiate an idealized innocence, yet their eyes betray a hard-earned wisdom. Drawing from childhood memories and life experiences, she crafts images that are both thought-provoking and seductive. The central theme weaving through her art is people and their complex relationships.
