Working in acrylics, watercolors, and collage, Odra is renowned for her expressive floral paintings, landscapes and culturally-themed stories on canvas. Remarkable images with vivid colors and textured compositions reflecting her worldly travels, Odra's works open your eyes to a world of artistic fantasy and surrealism. Prior to beginning her career as an art instructor, Odra worked as a fashion and retail illustrator. These two experiences greatly influenced her while a young, emerging artist. She has traveled frequently to Australia, Europe, Mexico and Southeast Asia, and Odra credits these voyages to her heightened appreciation of and inspiration from various global artists and culturally-based art forms. Odra graduated from Clarke College and also attended The Chicago Academy of Fine Arts. She has shown her work throughout the Tri-State area. "Art has been an overwhelming presence and influence in my life. I love and appreciate all forms and try to collect from various places. I truly feel that art enhances people's lives and feelings." | |
