MARIANA COTLEAR

Afternoon liver toast at this little slice of heaven. (at Tilda All Day)

Plant babies enjoying their last few days inside before I free them in the outside world (ok, our deck). They grow up so fast! 💪🌱🌿 (at Pineapple Heights)

Finally, it's up! Doesn't this piece look right at home in Olivia's dining room? Seeing my work hang in peoples' homes is such a rush! Thanks to everyone who watched this one come together!

Cloudy day outside but nice inside. The square piece above the chair is called Morning Light & it's for sale! Check out marianacotlear.com/artbymc/artforsale for details

Someone abandoned an old bedroom mirror in my building a little while back, so I scooped it up and painted it into this fun optical illusion guy. It's been hanging in my living room for a bit but I need to make some room so I'm thinking of giving it away.... What do y'all think?

Commission for @gorvitron finished! Now she just needs a name (and a frame). What should we name her? (at Pineapple Heights)

Surprise! My piece Infinity[UP] has left the building and is now up at the gorgeous Parkette in Brooklyn. This is a huge milestone for me - it's my first piece in a public place! How do you think it looks on their white brick wall? (at Parkette Brooklyn)

Hey guys! I've been changing things up a bit and am now making art out of my home in Brooklyn (crazy, right?). Thanks to everyone who has been following so far and please keep it up if you're excited about home decor and handmade stuff. I'll be sharing some images and thoughts of my work and process over here, and you can also check it out on my website: marianacotlear.com/artbymc. Hope you like it!
