Anna Todaro is an acrylic painter (modern myth, urban pop impressionist, lowbrow) from Portland, Oregon;
She specializes in imagery based on her own mythology
based on Ancient Spirits from the Future...
I like to think of them as Ancient Spirits, Angels, Goddesses from the future, like warriors, lovers,
winged Nikes, come to guide us......
...their eyes alone telling the story of their age...
...their culture from the memories of many...
