Some people really thrived in the pandemic: Fort Worth artist Tatyana Alanis is a great example.
. Like many, the Fort Worth artist was just looking for a way to cope with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. While others began baking sourdough or took up gardening, Alanis started anA self-proclaimed people watcher, Alanis says the subjects of her drawings weren’t anything out of the ordinary from her typical work. She was simply posting what she sketched in her free time between rotting in the corporate world and dealing with the woes of being in her 20s.
“A lot of times when I look at or visit my work, I see it myself while knowing no one else knows I did that, and I’m OK with that,” Alanis says. “But with that picture there, there was no way for me to hide from it — I was hard launched. And so, because I’m reserved and feel like I’m finding my footing in the art world, it’s been a lot to take in. It’s good, but it’s still so new to me to see where I’m at.
The gallery will celebrate the changing of seasons, Alanis' interpretation of color and what it means to her practice. Despite the melancholy inspiration behind her work, Alanis is sure she wouldn’t be nearly as happy as she is now were doing anything else. After all, French 75 Studios is what got her out of the mundane constraints of her previous corporate 9-to-5 life. As a full-time artist, Alanis says she’s been able to explore the kinds of freedom she wasn’t able to find in herself before.
