“At the heart of my art are my signature cheetahs, whose expressive personalities tell stories of real, relatable emotions, from moody to mischievous.” - Kendra Dandy Artist and Creator of Bouffants & Broken Hearts

Meet the artist.

Kendra Dandy is based in Philadelphia USA and has been creating bold, cheeky art with attitude for many years. Her work is full of personality with abstract designs that feature her signature cheetahs. These glorious creatures are a symbol for her emotions and experiences. Playful, thoughtful and moody, the cheetahs reflect honest, relatable feelings. Their expressive eyes and postures invite you to connect with their emotions, reminding us of the beauty in being true to ourselves. Other recurring characters include chic food and cocktails with attitude to spare, bringing a sense of quirky humor and individuality. Kendra loves working with a mix of mediums such as painting, printmaking, and the iPad, she loves experimenting with colours, shapes and ideas to make unique and striking pieces.
