Kassondra Friedman, also known as Kaceesix (or just Kacee to her friends) is a creator and modern day witch working just outside of Atlanta, GA. She grew up a part time framer in the backroom at her family’s shop and art gallery. The Picture Framer, in Woodstock, GA then hosted adult painting classes taught by her Mother’s friend and contract employee Debra Tidwell. Throughout her young life she was always engaged in learning and creating art. Kassondra was always surrounded by those who are truly passionate about a creative life, and always had the dream of being a great Artist.

She went to school for fashion and film, where she worked for most of her adult life. After having her son ten years ago, Kacee became a full time visual artist. She works in series, and in past series has created moody landscapes with text, foggy roads, and women in high end fashion.

Her last completed series “Selfies” is a spiritual journey told through self portraits. These paintings start as digital collages created in the PicsArt application. These selfie-inspired reference photos are used to create pop-culture driven oil paintings. In these works her face is mostly covered and surrounded by graphic elements. These pieces are based on her spiritual journey to self acceptance during a shadow phase of her life (2020-2021).
