Illusion Painting

Marta Lock, international art critic, "Croatian artist Andrea Stanic chooses precisely the path of expressive independence because for her, the work must have its own distinct personality, it must be an extension of the feelings she experienced when she approached the canvas to begin creating; Basically, she moves between Abstract Expressionism and Expressionism, depending on whether she desires to talk about a concept more linked to interaction, to relationships with others, or whether she wants to link nature to her inner feelings, to the depths of her being or to more human sensations, or whether she feels the need to express her deep love for seascapes, for regattas, for the sails that often colour the wonderful sea of her country, Croatia. The choice of colour is always lively, intense, sunny, almost as if for Andrea Stanic colour was inseparable from life, a positive approach that cannot fail to emerge from her paintings, which are often explosive but also in other cases more meditative, depending on the subject she chooses to deal with." Andrea Stanic was born in Rijeka (Croatia, Europe) in 1974, where she lives and works. She uses oil paints techniques on canvas with different motives; coastal landscapes, figurative art which include lines, shapes, colors, and abstractions that she adores because she loves free expression. She thinks that each artwork has its own individual character which can draw observers into magic artistic world. She rarely gives name to pictures because she doesn't want to restrict viewers freedom to imagine. She is proud that her paintings adorn many spaces. She also has been participated in charity auctions, and she gladly helps the needy, especially the children. As an art editor, she illustrated two covers of a novel. She was held a several solo and group exhibitions, presenting her paintings along with many well-known artists and receiving numerous accolades.https://www.lopinionista.it/la-liberta-stilistica-di-andrea-stanic-per-sottolineare-il-messaggio-unico-di-ogni-opera-122682.html
