Malia Barreras-Float

Growing up, portraiture deeply fascinated me and the endless array of colors that reside within skin tones. I began with colored pencils and branched out to oil and acrylic paints, even sometimes charcoal and ink. I would describe my style as representational but I am attracted to a surreal twist in combination with realistic effects.
