Artist Biography

Back to Art, Prints & Posters Collection
Soraya Chemaly

Soraya Chemaly - "My paintings have been heavily influenced by my childhood in the Bahamas, where I was regularly exposed to Haitian and Caribbean art. The art of Haiti in particular is infused with flowers and plants that take on a life of their own and often representing, in the primitive style, people, gestures, moods and symbols.'

Applying and mixing colors directly to the canvas results in paintings that are deep in color, texture, and vibrancy. She enjoys painting large, simple images that focus the viewer's attention on unconventionally contrasted, but harmonious colors.

She moved permanently to the United States after completing her studies and has been a resident of Washington, DC for 18 years. She is married and has three children.
