Mandy Starr has lived in Santa Barbara since 1988. As an artist and designer her influence was derived by the Impressionistic style and her travels.

Her desire to paint started from childhood and has grown into a strong passion. The paintings express the artists feelings through color, texture and strength which, make them come alive visually.

Her art has captured the elements of movement, drama, emotion and vibrancy. These dynamic paintings of color and style that surround the onlooker, pulsates and captures the spirit within.

We hope to excite you visually and stimulate you emotionally so that you will walk away with a deeper understanding of Mandy’s artistic expression.
