Hope Zarro was born into an artistic family in the Catskill Mountains of Woodstock, New York; her father was a painter, and her mother was a sculptor and fine artist. Her grandfather, a world-famous classical pianist and professor at the renowned Juilliard School, introduced Hope to famous painters’ work at the museums in New York City and surrounded her with the music of Mozart, Bach, and Rachmaninoff. Hope started drawing, painting, and experimenting with color at the age of seven, and later studied sculpting, pottery, painting, drawing, and Japanese calligraphy art. She excelled in art classes through high school and when attending The Juilliard School in New York City. While at Juilliard, Hope found a deep passion for the art of high-end hairstyling and makeup, leading to a successful career in NYC working in fashion and entertainment, including Cats and Chicago on Broadway. After relocating to Los Angeles, Hope quickly ended up on camera working on several TV shows doing hair and makeup for MTV, The Style Network, and the USA Network.  While working in Los Angeles, Hope never stopped painting. She attended The Kline Academy of Fine Art, where her creativity moved her towards working and painting on canvas. She fell in love with large-scale contemporary abstract art — the movement, emotion, and rawness of texture — and its ability to transport the viewer out of the moment into another place.  As an artist, Hope’s intention is to create works with different colors and textures that draw the viewer into a powerful experience that evokes all dimensions of mind, emotion, body, soul, and spirit. Her paintings call for a fully committed presence, vulnerability, and authenticity, creating a desire to touch and feel the work, with the goal of drawing out the viewer’s raw being — the experience of being human — and bringing inspiration to live from the center of one’s heart. Hope creates large-scale abstract art and lives with her husband and children in Hermosa Beach California.
