Artist I Heart: Cristiana Couceiro

{ His past seemed to be rising above his present }

Remember Cristiana Couceiro from this post?  Well, I keep going back to her site for more, so I thought it only appropriate to show you some of my favorites in an “Artist I Heart” post.  Because it’s true.  I heart you Cristiana.

From the intimate, nostalgic images to the engaging colors, every piece seems thoughtful, every element purposeful.  You can even see the care she takes in titling her work.  By cropping the vintage images, she creates an intriguing story — it feels as if we’re peeking into an important moment.  We’re left to wonder what she’s trying to tell us, as our eyes embrace each beautifully balanced composition.
