Alicia Tubbs

Alicia is a storyteller at heart.  Stories of hidden places shared and inner beauty revealed spring up in her imagination. Providing visual tales that beg for interpretation is her aim. The subjects that she chooses are linked together in unique relationships. Do they hold a secret that only the two of them know? Possibly one holds the key to a valued treasure or the key to another's freedom. Peppering symbolism into each painting only adds to its significance. This is also true for the abstracts in her portfolio.  For example, there is intentionality to develop depth while allowing the first layer of  texture to peek through the final layer. This could point to a heart with many layers that can only be seen and appreciated by those who are willing to take the time.
