Audrey Kawasaki (born March 31, 1982 in Los Angeles, California) is a Los Angeles-based painter (Painting), known for her distinctive, erotically charged portrayals of young, adolescent women. Her works are oil paintings painted directly onto wood panels, and her style has been described as a fusion of Art Nouveau and Japanese manga."Audrey Kawasaki" interview, MacTribe, April 2007.
Kawasaki studied fine art painting for two years at the Pratt Institute in New York City, but left after two years without completing her degree. She cites the emphasis in the New York art scene on conceptual art, an approach at odds with her figurative, illustrative style, as among the reasons she left. As of 2006, Kawasaki is considered a rising star in the Los Angeles art scene. In 2005, Kawasaki designed the cover art for Alice Smiths For Lovers, Dreamers & Me.
