Regina Ottman


As an artist born with perfect pitch and synesthesia, my ability to 'hear' colors is a wellspring of inspiration. My abstract work explores various musical keys, tempi, rhythms, patterns and moods. As I investigate these varieties of musical palettes and textures, I work with a variety of media and techniques to best express the way I see-hear. I am inspired by the patterns, colors and textures in music and in the natural world. I am curious about the way opposites inform and balance each other: fragility and resilience, sorrow and comfort, community and singularity. I am intrigued by these tensions and how they find space on a two dimensional surface. In these relationships are endless sources of inspiration, curiosity and joy, both in my art and in everyday life.
