I am Adriana Whitney, a self-taught folk artist. I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. With my artwork I want to take the observer to an imaginary world inspired by nursery rhymes, fairy tales, lullabies and childhood memories. I want to generate a sentiment of nostalgia. My subjects are animals and children. I frequently portrait them in uncommon sceneries. I also paint my subjects as if they were posing for a picture taken a long time ago when people would not smile at the camera. My artwork always starts with a thought or a vision and then I find which medium will let me achieve that idea.
