About the Artist

About Rita Irvin

Rita Irvin is a self-taught mixed media artist based in Cocoa Beach, Florida, working under the name Rita Irvin Fine Art. Raised in West Berlin, Germany, she spent twenty-five years in flooring sales, interior design, and showroom management before returning to painting as her primary practice.

Irvin works in surrealist mixed media on canvas and wood panel, drawing on influences including Salvador Dalí, Frida Kahlo, Georgia O'Keeffe, and René Magritte. Her paintings incorporate recurring motifs, among them koi, fragmented figures, and faces embedded within the composition that reveal themselves with sustained looking.

She is a member of the Brevard Cultural Alliance and has exhibited at Studios of Cocoa Beach, Starry Night Gallery, and ArtServe in Fort Lauderdale.
