Kasandra has completed the Mastery Program with the Milan Art Institute and works in a style best described as abstract expressionism. She generally begins her work by adding texture to a canvas followed by blocks of colour in her preferred medium of oil paints.
Energized by nature's magnificence, she allows herself room for unstructured spontaneity. Painting without reference material means Kasandra uses the movement and patterns found in clouds, the grandness of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, and even the tiniest prairie wildflower as her inspiration. Her work is an elusive reflection of the natural world; it shares qualities with an ethereal fever dream and lets the experience be with the viewer.
Kasandra has worked to build a community that inspires her every day. She attends online sessions with her mentor and brilliant artist Vjekoslav Nemesh, collaborates with fellow creators on MilanArt.com, and participates in weekly workshop sessions hosted by Freydoon Rassouli, an artist and author known for his unique style of Fusion Art.
