Lake Como II Painting

Zuzana is a London based artist, a member of Richmond Art Society, International Cultural Ambassador for Rockwell Art Canada and an awarded artist by International Watercolour Masters. Zuzana’s original works can be found in private collections around the world, from Japan to the US. Here is what she has to say about what drives her work. Influences Asian-style paintings and themes, Japanese in particular, appeal to me greatly. I can relate to the wabi-sabi philosophy of embracing imperfection and impermanence. I love the simplicity of ikebanas and the beauty and storytelling inherent in Japanese typography. Most of my work has plenty of intentional white space, also typical of Japanese ink paintings. Inspiration is everywhere. For Still Life I choose very simple subjects: inanimate objects, most recently pottery – with aim to find and convey a specific quality or mood.
