Painting Shine ii by Talts Jaanika | Painting Abstract Landscapes Acrylic

Born on the shores of the Baltic Sea, Jaanika lived in Sweden before shifting base to Ireland a little more than ten years ago. Jaanika chose Dublin as her new home and started her artistic practice there. Deeply inspired by the beauty of the bay of Dublin that grew on her, Jaanika immediately felt a pressing need to capture it through painting. Self-taught, the young artist's pieces were normally acrylics on canvas, using an approach born out of experiments on colour density and tone. Completely driven by her current desires, Jaanika's painting is sincere and spontaneous, with an endless quest of recreating an emotion more than representing a tangible reality.
