Asta Jakubson
For 30+ years, I've been at the joyful collision of fashion and fine art. My process? Tap into the creative well inside, then respectfully raid the closet Mother Nature already gave us. I rescue clothes with restyling, conjure custom designs, and spill my soul onto paper with watercolor, acrylic flow, and pencils. Call it holistic art. I call it a fantastic mess with fabulous results.
