I'm Ariana Zimmermann. I paint to highlight the sanctity of the natural world, so that we may bring its magic more fully into our homes and lives.
Through my artwork, I explore the archetypal, symbolic powers of nature and how humans relate to these energies.
I am an emerging, self-taught artist based in Victoria, B.C. My paintings revolve around wildlife, and through my artwork I explore the archetypal, symbolic powers of nature and how humans relate to these energies. My work often features ethereal and magical elements, offering an uplifting image of the world as interconnected, powerful, and wholesome.
I feel a deep kinship with animals, plants, and land, and sees these as medicines that have the capacity to house and heal the human heart. My mixed media paintings blend the realms of conservation and visionary art, and my style can best be categorized as abstracted-realism.
