Hi, I’m Carmen Gonzalez

I am a contemporary pop/realism artist who loves colour, patterns, and nostalgia. I am inspired by simple everyday objects. My aim is to create artwork that make people smile and reminisce.

Events

Throughout the year, I enjoy participating in several live art shows and events. I love meeting people face-to-face and seeing them connect with my work firsthand.

I hope to see you at one of these events!

DAY 2 of Whyte Avenue Artwalk!! Lots of amazing art to go see.  If you’re a fan of my art, I unfortunately do NOT have a tent this year at the ArtWalk.  HOWEVER, you can still go find and view my original artwork & reproductions at NOA Gallery & Gifts Shop which is only a few mins drive east to Bonnie Doon Mall.  So when the sun gets to hot and you want some air conditioning, come on over and check out the artwork of our 22 resident artists.  @nightofartists

NOA Gallery has two gallery spaces which are located on the north side of the mall near Makami College.  The awesome part is that we are there every day, month after month, open 7 days per week (operating hours the same as the mall).

Why do you paint?
👩‍🎨
Painting is a safe space for me, a place to be who I am.  It’s a place of comfort and peace.  It is a mediation for me to focus on the details of my paintings.  It allows me to slow down and paint at a pace that feels good.  This world is so fast pace and so many things are out of control.  It’s nice to come to a space where I can singly focus on painting each line or choosing a colour for my background.  This focus stops time and it stops all the chaos from consuming me.  Ultimately, it brings me back to what’s my purpose.
