Taylor Young Moro is an artist who resides in Northwest, CT. As a lover of reading and storytelling, her goal is to create paintings and drawings that tell a story through portraiture. Primarily working in oils and charcoal, Taylor aims to capture the figure and portrait from a traditional standpoint. Her work is greatly reflected on her time spent studying at Lyme Academy of Fine Arts in Old Lyme, CT where she learned the fundamentals of drawing, painting and sculpting the figure from life. Taylor is currently working on finishing her degree in Fine Arts and continuing to build her body of work.
