EVERY ISLANDS' DREAM

As far back as she can remember, Aphrodite loved to create.
A career in cosmetology allowed her to express her creativity as
a hair designer. During those years, she joined the arts association
in Haverhill, Massachusetts. Her work caught the attention of
Boston’s Copley master artist, Mark Hayden. Mark directed her to a
workshop by New York’s N.A. master artist, Daniel E. Greene,
where she studied portraiture over a three year period. In the 1990’s,
Aphrodite painted sports figures such as Kirby Puckett, Larry Bird,
and Magic Johnson. Five of her sport figure portraits are on
display at the New England Sports Museum in Boston.

In 1996, a visit to the Caribbean evoked a new direction for
Aphrodite’s life and art. The Caribbean’s natural beauty inspired the
artist and her husband to move to St. Thomas so she could pursue
her art career full-time. Her commitment and dedication to her art led
her to her studio/gallery in Tillett Gardens. She has been warmly
received by the community and art collectors alike. Her work may be
found in fine galleries and gift shops throughout the Caribbean.

ARTIST..|..BRIEF

“Aphrodite loves to paint. Her exuberance, respect and gratitude for her art goes deep into her work. At the same time, her reverence for her art doesn't overwhelm her sense of delight in painting the Caribbean. She is fabulous to work with and is the perfect commission artist.”

"As I mature as an oil painter, I must say this is an exciting endless learning process where ideas never cease; and new, greater challenges constantly arise. Working with that, I know this endeavor will continue to captivate me through its eye opening changes for a lifetime."
