"Upward Gaze" is a new artwork of my new autumn series that captures the essence of autumn's enchantment through a unique perspective. The canvas beckons viewers to pause, breathe in serenity, and immerse themselves in the vibrant colors of the fall forest canopy. The focal point of the painting lies in its portrayal of the treetops, adorned in their rich autumnal glory. The leaves, painted in an array of warm hues – fiery reds, burnt oranges, and golden yellows – create a mesmerizing tapestry against the canvas of the sky. The upward perspective invites contemplation, inviting viewers to gaze into the heavens, daydream, and yearn to take flight, while still embracing every moment of life to the fullest. It's a testament to the artist's love for looking upward, a reminder that amidst the hustle and bustle of life, there's profound beauty in simply pausing to appreciate the world around us.
My name is Tanja Frost, I am a full time artist based in Nitra, Slovakia. Growing up in a multicultural family and having lived in five different countries, I absorbed the diverse cultures and traditions of various peoples. From a young age, I have always been a creatively versatile individual. My educational journey led me to the field of architecture and design, and I've worked in various fields over the years. Since 2016, I've dedicated my full days to working consistently as an artist. I honed my artistic skills at the esteemed University of Arts in Bratislava, Slovakia, earning a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts. My academic journey, spanning from 2016 to 2020, laid the foundation for the rich tapestry of my creative endeavors. The filtering sunlight and fleeting moments of interaction with light and movement across a landscape captivate me. The technique I employ in my artworks involves the delicate application of oil on canvas, showcasing a style that gracefully bridges the realms of Realism and Impressionism. My enduring attraction to strong, rich colors serves as a defining element in my artistic expression. In my dual roles as an environmentalist and impressionist, I am deeply inspired by nature. This inspiration fuels my mission to provide unique emotional support to the environment and our planet through my art. My sincerest desire is to prompt others to recognize and appreciate the beauty and love our planet offers, drawing attention to its inherent creative features. My landscapes emerge from the fog, covered in a glowing sunset light or sparkling with night lights which bring it to life. The technique of execution of my artworks is oil on canvas, my style is something between Realism and Impressionism. My works are already in private collections in the US and Europe. I took part in more than 10 exhibitions in Slovakia, Czech Republic and Italy. Many of my customers come back for repeat purchases and say that my paintings change their lives! I love to paint so much that I can’t imagine a single day without my creativity. Painting is the center of my life. Tanja Frost
