Serena Buonaguidi-Haynes

Share

Serena’s paintings are often perceived as other worldly embracing the mythical aesthetic, and appearing ethereal, fragile and dream like.

Serena was born in London 1968 to Danish/Italian parents. She studied painting and sculpture at art college, where she started casting faces and taught herself basic prosthetics, going on to become a successful makeup artist, working in television and advertising.

Serena has a unique approach to achieving her painting technique – the canvases are laid flat on the floor, using bold brush strokes for the backgrounds, finger painting for the figures and the finer details are achieved through wire scratching and pencil drawings.
