Howard, who got her start as a studio assistant for Hirst in the early 1990s, is known for using common household paint to portray profound subjects like religion, sexuality, and death. Her paintings and drawings often appear to be shrouded in a veil of water, as though suspended at the bottom of a pool. Her work has been exhibited at Gagosian Gallery, Haunch of Venison, White Cube, among many others. ____________________________________
