About the Artwork
Haleh Mashian’s “Tutu Tales” feels like stepping into a dream that’s equal parts joy, movement, and memory. The background is a whirlwind of brushstrokes—pinks, reds, blues, greens—all layered and textured like an untamed garden or a memory that’s too vivid to fade. The energy is wild but intentional.
The black tutu is the anchor. Among all the color, it gives the painting some weight—a place for your eyes to land. The strokes are loose and expressive, giving the sense that she’s mid-spin or mid-thought.
“Tutu Tales” is a beautiful example of contemporary figurative art with an abstract twist. It’s layered, textured, emotional, and full of movement—perfect for those who connect with artwork that’s both expressive and personal.
About the Artist
As a painter and creative expressionist, Mashian's abstract works reveal her appreciation of color theory, compositional form, and studying positive and negative space. Working in mixed media and using various techniques from collage to impasto, a repeated layering and application of paint, Mashian's dynamic pieces range from smaller artworks that can be arranged together to large-scale paintings. Her large-paneled paintings have been exhibited nationally in Los Angeles, Miami, and are included in private collections in the United States and abroad.
