Erika Tirado

Passionate about color, flowers, and the feminine form, the artist delves into exploring sensual energy and its various emotional and erotic layers through their work. Their journey with appreciating the female figure began with self-portraiture in their early 20s, a deeply personal process that led to healing and self-love. They find beauty in how the human body can convey authenticity and vulnerability, drawing viewers to either look away or delve into their own emotions, ultimately confronting themselves in the process.

Travel plays a crucial role in the artist's growth and creative process, having had the opportunity to visit diverse locations like India, England, Mexico, and various states in the US. Collaborating with other creatives during their travels has been a source of inspiration, including painting a flower mural in Taos, New Mexico, and participating in art shows. Their experiences have culminated in two solo exhibitions in San Antonio, TX, with one held at the Blue Star Arts Complex.

Through a collection of artworks that celebrate sensuality through color and the female form, the artist aims to invite viewers to connect with their passion and feminine energy. By exploring vulnerability in their feelings, they hope to inspire others to embrace their sensual emotions and invite a feminine touch into their spaces. Those interested in adding a touch of sensuality to their home or office decor are encouraged to purchase prints of the artist's work.
