Xandra Homes Art
Xandra Homes is an artist celebrated for her vibrant, high-contrast murals and portraits, where eyes are particularly vivid. Trained by her grandfather and inspired by her teachers, she combines whimsy with bold colors in her landscapes, especially water scenes. She holds a degree from the University of Houston and teaches at Painting with a Twist, welcoming commissions to explore new techniques.

Enjoying the creative moment: Not knowing where my head or hands are going – is the pure essence of why you see – what you see in my images.
“The Abstract”, the non-representational is my true passion.
100% analog: Hand-held tools/methods with pencils, pens, acrylic ink.
My paintings are Acrylic Ink, not paint.
My goal for the audience: A visual curiosity that provides a pleasant distraction.

I’m a US-based artist best recognized for my surrealism, uplifting acrylic paintings. Animals and chess pieces are alive in my paintings. Mylar balloons are used by the characters to travel and live their lives; everything that would typically occur on the ground occurs while they are in the air. They travel through portals, and there are clocks of all sizes and forms everywhere, encircled by clouds of all hues.
Situations in my daily life and how I respond to them have an impact on me. All of the unsaid sensations and emotions that my subconscious contains are released through my paintings. There are elements of melancholy, joy, support, remembering, and attentiveness in every detail of my paintings.
In this fast-paced, hectic environment. I want my paintings to make people smile, pique their interest, and give them time to stop and appreciate my work. In conclusion, I want to improve people’s lives, one painting at a time.

My drawings and paintings explore construction and deconstruction, where organization and disorganization are somehow working together. Building up and tearing down is seen everywhere in the world and expands out within the vastness of our universe. The imagery is reminiscent of worldly themes and materials, where urban infrastructure and natural landscapes are in opposition, but working together to create destruction and harmony.
All of the paintings are created using acrylic paint on hand constructed wooden supports. Each piece is completely crafted using precision, patience and craftsmanship. The backside is finished using the same quality as the front and is signed and titled. Each title is designed as a way of summarizing the work using visually similar elements as the front.
Bella’s Flowers
My name is Isabella, and I love art. My mother told me she knew art would be my passion when I was in kindergarten. I would always color inside the lines and was very meticulous in what I drew and how I colored it. She said I was always striving for my art to be perfect. She was right. I love how art makes me feel, but what I really love is seeing how my art makes others feel. I especially love painting flowers because to me they are the prettiest to paint. I know as I grow as an artist my art will grow too. I’m looking forward to taking this first step in making art my career.

My medium is a varied mix of tiny shells, scraps of paper, slivers of glass, thick gel mediums, crusted gouache additives, creamy acrylic and globs of oil paints, traces of watercolor and melted wax crayons combined with hardened enamels and carefully chosen 14kt gold flake.
Every piece is original and every creation is an unpredictable surprise! I create with a clear heart, no expectations. The materials combined together create a resist-like reaction and the results are different every time…..each piece is genuinely unique and original!
I’m passionate about living the artful life. I have a great appreciation for nature and animals,20% of all sales goes to S.N.A.P. (Spay and Neuter Assistance Program) for animals. I am also an active advocate for the “Adopt Don’t Shop!” movement which means finding forever homes for our homeless furry friends.
