About me

Cara Loconte is a professional artist and art mentor whose work is a powerful celebration of body positivity and the beauty of nature. Passionate about encouraging self-love and acceptance, Cara believes that the human body, like nature, is inherently beautiful. "We come into the world naked and gorgeous, but somewhere along the way, we are taught to loathe ourselves," she reflects. Through her art, Cara envisions a world where everyone nurtures and cares for their bodies as one would a garden of beautiful flowers.

​

Through a dynamic process that incorporates modelling paste, stencils, spray paint, acrylics, and oils, Cara creates richly textured pieces that merge the human form and animals with blooming florals.

Her art explores the interplay between light and dark, inviting viewers to embrace the full spectrum of the human experience and the deep connection between body and nature. Each piece is a tribute to the beauty found in all shapes, sizes, and expressions of life.

​

Cara has worked closely with introverted teens and individuals with disabilities, witnessing firsthand the transformative power of art. With just a little encouragement and self-belief, her students' creativity and confidence blossomed, further inspiring Cara to use their own art as a means of healing and empowerment.

Cara graduated from the Milan Art Gallery Mastery Program in 2024. Her work in on display at the Joy Collective in Maleny, where she also completed a large mural. Cara's work has also been selected as a finalist in the 'Little Treasures' competition at Milan Art Gallery in Sarasota Florida and was exhibited at the Loft Gallery in February 2025.
