About
Boo Deity is an established Pop-Art Painter since 2016. She was born in Kentucky and graduated Magna Cum Laude from Mount St. Joseph, in Cincinnati, OH with a degree in English and a minor in International Art. She is in her high school basketball Hall of Fame and played NCAA women’s basketball in college.
Boo Deity sold over 2 million dollars of Contemporary Art as an Art Consultant from 2011-2016. Her business, Street Stains™, uses a propriety printing and sewing technique and has been featured in over 200 art shows around the U.S.
Boo Deity paints layers of an exhausted graffiti wall on canvas. She uses bright spray paint contrasted with chalky pastel colors. Her artwork invites you to see the tension between a beautiful face, and a complicated soul. Deity’s style begs a compassion from you; people are not what they appear to be on the outside. The attitude in her subjects’ face seduces you in a comedy where, once engaged, only you can discern the punchline.
Boo Deity’s personal devotion to painting is a dedication to rewriting her family’s history of mental illness. She is inspired by trips to the Art Museum, music, and dance.
Her technique is perfectly messy, she uses acrylic paint, oil paint, fabric, and digital techniques.
Boo loves you.
