Mona Barbu

Inspired by nature. The passion for drawing and painting has been an integral part of her life from a very early age. She has always been fascinated by the myriad of colors, textures, and shapes that exist in our world, and her urge to capture their essence has only grown stronger with time. Driven by her curiosity and desire to hone her skills, she pursued a formal education in oil painting from the Bucharest School of Arts. This experience helped her expand her technical abilities and deepened her understanding of art theory and aesthetics. Her creative process involves immersing herself in the environment around her and drawing inspiration from the simplest of things. A blossoming flower, a chirping bird, a cute furry and funny-looking animal - all serve as sources of wonder and awe that she seeks to capture on her canvas. Through her paintings, she aims to not only communicate her own emotions but also evoke a sense of wonder and curiosity in others. Each piece is a reflection of her personal journey, and she hopes that viewers can find their own stories within them. Ultimately, her goal is to use art as a means to connect with others and create a shared appreciation for the beauty of the world around us.
