The Inspiration Behind the Piece:

Tara’s landscape paintings serve as a celebration of the natural world’s harmony and resilience, inviting viewers to connect with the beauty that surrounds them. Each piece reveals a unique interaction with light, color, and texture, a metaphor for how transitional moments in nature can communicate universal themes of connection and peace. The artist draws from personal experiences and memories tied to specific locations, allowing her work to tell stories grounded in a sense of place.

Andris incorporates metal leaf to elevate her artwork, merging traditional practices with contemporary aesthetics. The use of leafing introduces a remarkable luminosity and texture, capturing and reflecting light in unique ways. The effect can evoke a sense of movement, inviting the observer to reconsider the piece from different angles as light changes throughout the day.
