Regina Foster

Regina Foster’s paintings present us with dichotomies: they are at once elegant in their pictorial narratives coupled with the atmospheric backgrounds she incorporates into so many of her works. Simultaneously, the atmospheres often reveal an under painting that is vibrant with equations; in other moments, however, the artist reveals merely a hint of an equation.
— Wade Wilson, Summer 2014

About Regina

Regina Foster is inspired by creating paintings in “ the pursuit of happiness”. In an energy and light continuum that uplifts the spirit.

Born in South Africa, her mother an oil painter gave Regina an early understanding of creative learning. She attended the Johannesburg Art School and today feels a deep gratitude for the amazing artists and teachers who opened her eyes to the wonders of putting paint to canvas.

She lived and worked in Paris, London and New York, travelled through poverty stricken countries and is passionate about paying it forward. She has incorporated a measure of poverty into her work that is currently being used by The World Bank, the UNDP and in over thirty countries and by Bhutan for its Gross National Happiness index.

Regina Foster lives and works in Tucson, Arizona with her husband William and her beloved Aussie, Mobi.
