Since 2003, Aleta Pippin, abstract artist, has continued to explore and reassess her artistic journey. With abstraction as the vehicle, she continues to study color, depth, movement, and energy for which her abstract paintings are noted. Creating is what motivates Pippin. By the time she was a teenager she was drawing figures and creating posters for school. Then her creations took her into another direction: marriage, children, and job. The drive to create lived on inspiring Pippin to open her own business in 1984. That business eventually made the list of the 50 largest women owned businesses in Houston.
