Angie Brooks studied art at the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC and the New World School of the Arts in Miami. Although, it was through her travels that she had her own personal renaissance and began to create art.
"I remember standing in front of La Primavera by Botticelli and weeping." I returned to the states a different person. It changed my life.
She has worked as an artist for over 20 years, owning her own decorative art business, creating custom art and mural commissions and fine art.
She has used many mediums, from plaster, encaustic, ink, canvas, paper, text, organic pigments, oils, metal leaf; creating expressionistic organic imagery that explores themes of the sacred human spirit and it's journey, ancient cultures, symbolism, language, poetry, divinity, inter-connectedness and nature.
"My sensitivity to culture and life is always evolving, and my path continues as an emerging artist. Free to explore. Free to be. Each new work is a new journey to be creative, to be whole and connect to life~ and my creative energy", she says.
She is also an accomplished free-lance writer, published in Parent and Child magazine and a featured artist in Casa y Estilo International, Naples Illustrated, Bonita Living, Neapolitan Family, News-Press, Palm Tree Press, and the Bonita Banner.
She is chapter leader of Atlanta Kids for Peace, a writer for Atlanta Art and Culture Examiner, mommy, volunteer, activist, blogger, culture seeker and citizen of the world.
