KARA MANZA | FINE ART PAINTING

Welcome! I believe ordinary moments are often the most extraordinary.

Through vibrant color, expressive brushwork, and contemporary impressionism, I transform meaningful moments into artwork that celebrated the people, places, and memories we never want to forget.  

As an Austin portrait artist and Texas portrait painter, I create custom portrait paintings and original artwork for collectors across the country. Whether I'm painting a beloved family member, a treasured pet, a meaningful landscape, or one of the portraits in my 100 Faces project, my goal is simple: to create artwork that brings joy for years to come.
 

Based in Austin, Texas, I also maintains a studio presence in the Greater Boston area, creating commissioned paintings for collectors throughout Texas and New England.  

 

My work has been featured in Times Square, Artist Closeup Magazine, Tarrytown Neighbors Magazine, and juried exhibitions throughout Texas.

 

But the greatest honor is creating artwork that becomes part of someone's story. ​​

Kindly,​​
