After The Storm

Are We There Yet?

Fumie Coello

Artist Statement

When the pandemic began in 2020, I chose to take art classes to uplift my spirits, leading me to discover a profound passion for painting that transformed my world.

I embrace various styles, techniques, and mediums in my artwork. Whether I create seascapes, landscapes, or figurative pieces—including portraits—I find joy in incorporating natural materials like flowers, trees, clouds, and animals. My deep love for nature fuels my creativity and inspires me to explore national parks and beaches.

My art reflects my mood and energy, influenced by the music I listen to. Just like music, my paintings tell stories, and I strive for my artwork to resonate like album covers, inviting others to connect with the emotions and narratives I express.
