Artist Statement

Maria E Hart

Naples, Florida

My passion for creating and visualizing art pieces started when I was very young living in Cuba. In March 2020, I moved back to Florida from Houston, Texas where I showed my work in galleries and juried shows around the Houston area. Before moving to Houston, I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Motion Picture Technology at the University of Central Florida. I was very lucky to have the opportunity to work for Disney Animation Studios in Orlando Florida where I fell in love with animation and special effects, the experience and knowledge that I acquired plus my degree permitted me to teach Computer Visual Effects at Full Sail Real World Education School in Orlando, Florida.

At present, I am dedicating my time to experimenting with different styles and mediums (watercolor, oil, acrylic, wood, pastels, color pencils, etc) creating works from ideas and inspiration collected from the past and always incorporating my experience into futures works.
