Daiva Gauryte-Martin

I am a contemporary artist residing and practicing on the Wirral peninsula where all my artwork is created in my garden studio.
I graduated with a degree in Fine Art from Siaulai University, Lithuania and then completed an MA in Creative Practice while resident in the UK.

I have an immense passion for unique and original art and strive to reflect this in all the works that I produce.
I divide my artistic passion between painting and drawing, only because I love both; I like simplicity of lines and marks and I find the depth of colour to be very stimulating.
My main inspiration comes from everyday life such as the diversity of landscape, weather, patterns and colours.
A key part of my collection is abstract oil pastel paintings, with a focus being on bright colours, abstract shapes and light; brought together with a combination of creativeness and spontaneity which is always evident in my work.
