About the Artist
Artist Dafni Milan creates mixed-media paintings that embody her passion for freedom and individuality. “My artwork has a lot of symbolism and personal meaning,†says Dafni. She believes in staying true to oneself, even if it means challenging societal norms, a belief that is deeply reflected in her work. Growing up in a family of artists and attending the art school her parents founded, Dafni developed her artistic talents from a young age. Now residing in Arizona with her husband, she paints in a well-lit bedroom she calls her sanctuary. Outside the studio, Dafni leads an active lifestyle, enjoying horse riding, spending time with her dogs, and exploring the outdoors.
