Porto is a delightful city by day, but by night it becomes truly magical. Climb any one of its numerous hills and the city center with its multitude of houses, baroque churches and narrow streets presents itself, at once cozy and filling you with a sense of mystery. If you're a painter and even a bit of a romantic, you just can't help yourself and not try to capture that on canvas. I painted it with large, impressionistic brushstrokes and paint is applied fairly thickly. I used the best artist-grade Gamblin paints and a solid stretcher frame. The painting is also protected with Gamblin Gamvar glossy varnish, which will do an excellent job protecting it from dust and grime for decades to come and can also be easily removed with mild solvents to revarnish it when the time comes.

Dina Milovanov is a contemporary Canadian artist who works in the genres of figurative and abstract art. She is also a painter of custom portraits, which have received critical acclaim for their expressiveness and craftsmanship. Trained in the tradition of classical figurative painting at the San Francisco Academy of Art, in her work she combines a respect for the craft of the old masters with a conviction that realist art should not be boring. Her abstract paintings frequently touch on classical motives and explore how our cultural narratives and collective memory continue to shape our "radically modern" lives. In her figurative works, she attempts to reconcile the transience and contingency of everyday being with the idea of a portrait as a solemn look into posterity that is inherent to the form. Dina was born in Nalchik, Russia, where she passed her childhood in her grandfather’s painting studio and gained a lifelong love of oil and canvases. She moved to Toronto as an adolescent and, discouraged from a career in art as “not a real job”, graduated from the University of Ottawa with a degree in political science. Overwhelmed by a relentless urge to paint, she then ran away from “a real job” at the Prime Minister’s Privy Council Office to study fine art and launch her art career in San Francisco. She’s extremely pleased to be back home in Toronto and to be able to share her work with Canadian art lovers.
