Passion and Moment: Maria Antoniv
26th November to 20th December 2018
Open evening 27th November 7-9pm
Maria Antoniv captures moments. The flowers she paints are delicate or vigorous, fresh, growing, bursting with character and energy.
Painting flowers offers the chance to savour the moment and appreciate the fleeting beauty of nature. No two flowers are alike, and working in plein air allows Maria to focus on the subtleties of colour, shape, and light. She transforms her canvases into tributes to nature, working with impermanence to reveal character and mood. Maria’s canvases celebrate flowers that strain into the light, the ones joyfully growing through cracks as well as those which seem to bloom without effort.
Maria works with both a brush and palette knife to give volume and shape to her subjects. Her paintings express her feelings for the land – the contours, moods and colour palette. Through paintings, she invites the viewer to participate in her vision of the world.
