Olivia Dee is a North Carolina based acrylic painter who uses a transformative year spent in the desert of Arizona as the collective undertone for her work.

This piece is from Olivia's ETA34 collection, Healing is Never Linear. In her own words: "Grief is a universally shared experience that connects all of us. This body of work encapsulates dust, hot stone, walking on sand at dusk - to evoke the feeling of being in the desert and facing the beautiful, raw, and intense feeling of grief after numbness."
