Tara Lewis (b. 1970, New Hampshire) is a realist painter whose playful large-scale portraiture examines youth culture from the pre-internet era. Exploring perceptions of beauty and self-empowerment, Lewis’ recent body of work is laden with a pop-like vibe. Each subject is carefully styled, often with bespoke accessories and garments that are created by the artist.
Tara Lewis earned her B.A. in Painting and Printmaking at the University of New Hampshire and pursued her graduate studies at Tufts University and The Museum School in Boston. Lewis maintains a studio in lower Manhattan; she has been actively exhibiting in New York since 2010.
