Artistic Style & Mediums
Mediums That Move With Emotion
Text: Felicia works primarily in oil, acrylic, and mixed media, often combining textures and layering techniques to create movement and depth. Her abstract compositions are known for their organic flow, muted yet emotionally charged palettes, and tactile surfaces.
Each piece is a blend of structure and spontaneity—where brush meets instinct, and form meets feeling.
Inspirations & Philosophy
What Fuels the Canvas
Felicia draws inspiration from nature, human vulnerability, memory, and the unspoken language of body and space. Her work reflects a personal dialogue between inner experience and external landscapes.
Guided by the belief that art is both a mirror and a portal, she invites viewers not just to look—but to feel.
“Art is my way of turning emotion into something visible, something that stays when the moment passes.” – Felicia Coihen
Artist Statement
“My practice is about revealing layers—on the canvas and within myself. I’m interested in what’s beneath the surface, in how color and form can say what words can’t. Whether I’m working on a private commission or a personal piece, I treat each painting as a dialogue, an act of presence, and a bridge between experiences.”
