Hope Elixir

Bella Harris is a self-taught artist whose first experience with the paintbrush came when she realized turpentine wasn't her Grandmother's Chanel N°5. She is the Online Editor at beautiful.bizarre magazine and a member of the Copycat Violence Art Collective.

With a background in medicine and an Associates of Applied Sciences, it wasn't until October of 2010 that her personal journey into the elusive realms of illustration, painting, and the dynamics of artistic experimentation began. Through continuous reflection, the whimsicality of her visual creations empowers a perceptual foundation of untouched emotion and an atmospheric dreamscape that balances an edifying belonging to one's self. In 2011, Harris launched her debut capsule collection, Designs by Bella: Vintage Lollipops x Magazzini Del Sale, displaying five original designs. Her visual creations, including art and photography, have been featured in a number of online and print media, including the Vogue.it, Nasty Gal, The Big Picture, Anormalmag, Fashion Envi, Socialyte.Collective, Unicorn Dream Magazine, Kiernan Gallery Exhibition Catalog, Nameless Rebellion Magazine, Art Nouveau Magazine, and The Scribble Project.
