She works commercially while doing her own projects to better express herself
Her portfolio is made up of three areas of work due to her separate
interests.
Her second home of belize in central America.
Her interest in the female form and Scopophilia [pleasure of looking]
and her love of Pop art and the artistic.

and her love of Pop art and the artistic.
Her playful personality is highlighted in her works
surrounding the female form, having a pop art way of doing her art or a
traditional one as she takes pleasure form, making it amusing, silliness and mischievous.
For the Belize part of her work, influenced from Eduard
Hopper, it shows a whole new world of inspiration. With her fantasy increasing
she created a narrative and open film still from attractively undone landscapes
to the free spiritedness of people. This shows in her Night prowl Series which also gives a rather eery feel to me, as if something islurking in the shadows.
Belize narrative:
Boyarde messenger is known for her “Pop art bottoms” that
can be found from London and Australia to the royal palaces of Jordan, Paris
and new York.
she combines hand painting and photography liberating the subject and admiring it while still adding it with humour.

Boyarde herself says she is “Painting on everything but paper”.
Scopophilia lets her re-contextualize sub conscious images of all types of art from Pre Raphaelites to comics ect.

Evolving her art, it now transcends from body to fashion
accessories.
A designer called charlotte Olympia collaborated with
Boyarde Messenger on a project during Art Basel Miami last year that involved
hand painting 100 pairs of the dolly platform pumps for the “Neiman Marcus charlotte
Olympia project”.
the most in interesting part is that each pair of shoes was a re-interpretation of a famous artwork from 20th century artists like Jackson Pollock, Pablo Picasso and Vincent van gogh.
During the private “Art Basel Miami” event, these shoes were
sold.
Personally, im not much of a heel person and yet even I find
most of the shoes rather impressively done.
She showed her work internationally with the Cynthia Corbett
Gallery with her first solo show in 2009.
In exhibited at Saatchi Gallery in London with “The art of giving” were she showed 4 hand painted women in her unique pop art style.

“Painterly in style yet photographic in composition” her fascinating
real life landscapes give the viewer the perfect story
