BIOGRAPHY
Regina Fernandes is Brazilian and has been living and working in Edinburgh since 1989. She is largely self-taught and has worked professionally in Brazil as an illustrator and in painted textiles, and in Scotland as an artist, illustrator and graphic designer. Her career has been developing under the combined influences of her professional experiences as a designer/illustrator and her thoughtful progress as an independent artist. Her work as a designer and illustrator is informed by graphical wit, and most aspects of her work tend toward a playful minimalism. Her work as an artist is figurative and questions of light and shadow are ever-present. When she paints interiors and still life, what she paints are inscapes and still lights.
