Tamara Deane is an artist who lives in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. She has enjoyed a career in the fine arts, commercial illustration, and graphic design.
Her surreal oil paintings with whimsical and realistically painted subjects, have hung in galleries, juried and group shows, and live in private collections. Her Abstract Butterfly series explores her childhood memories growing up in rural Georgia, incorporating images of wildflowers, deer antlers, sweetgum balls, and snowball fights.
Tamara’s paintings caught the attention of the Atlanta theatre community. She took on several projects as a set designer and was nominated for a Suzi Bass Award for scenic design in professional theatre for Horizon Theatre’s 9 Parts of Desire.
Inspired by the collaborative process and a desire to explore the purity of shapes and color through abstraction, Tamara created a collection of orbs with an interactive flair. These pieces invited the viewer to become part of the creative process, expanding ideas about creative boundaries and our understanding of what art can be.
Today, Tamara’s exploration continues through Moving Paintings—an evolving body of digital works that brings her original artwork into motion. Combining painting, digital animation, and sound, these immersive visual experiences invite viewers to slow down, observe, and experience change as part of the artwork itself.
“I want my work to create space for curiosity, where discovery unfolds naturally and beauty reveals itself over time.”
