Artwork Valuation: $300

Jan's artistic pieces are created with intuitive strokes and demonstrate the fluid nature of paint. The process is completely organic and spontaneous. What emerges on the canvas is a visual language of emotion, reflecting creative influences that have been instilled over many years of practice.

This Barbie is made from upcycled materials. Her top is crafted from a garbage bag, and her skirt is structured using a foam wrapper. To create the skirt's texture, I hand-sewed hundreds of cupcake liners onto the foam base. The wings were painted using my fluid art technique. On her skirt you'll find beautifully hand-dyed purple blooms made from cupcake liners. Her ears are pierced with free earrings I received from Carousell.
