Visual Art – Portland

Renee grew up as an artist, first influenced by cartoon drawings, then getting involved in charcoal and abstract drawing. This continued through her teenage years as well as picking up musical influences such as Mariah Carey, Missy Elliott, Aaliyah, and the R&B of the 1990s. She grew up with a high affinity for dance, music, and writing, and began writing poetry in school that eventually turned into song writing. Art was always the theme of her life. In 2010 Renee started recording some of the songs she had written and produced. She started making her own beats in 2008 with logic and putting her lyrics to them to make songs. The first songs she recorded were "Will You Give it All" and "Mountain Top” in Germany with Castle Road Records. Her songs are a mix of pop, dance, techno, and a little bit of hip-hop. Renee is a self-taught musician with music that is akin to Madonna. In 2012, Renee decided to go to college for interior design where she gained an education in design styles, fundamentals of art, photography, and professional designing. She also, in 2014, picked up oil painting. Her main art themes now are modern interior design, Abstract Expressionist oil painting, and modern photography. Revivalhaus, LLC is a company newly opened in 2016 by Renee and her husband to sell and showcase her art through a unique brand.
