YOUR THOUGHTS, NOT MINE Painting

Lotta Sirén is a self-taught abstract artist from Finland. In the end of 2018, she studied for Master’s degree in Business University, but something did not feel right. She decided to exchange movie nights into painting and just after a few months, she quit her day job to become a full-time artist. Her life goal shifted from corporate world into avoiding stress as much as possible. Sirén rapidly grew her collector and follower base online and had more than ten exhibitions during her first year as an exhibiting artist. Since then, Sirén has sold hundreds of paintings around the world. In 2021 Sirén had her daughter and a son in the beginning of 2023. She is now balancing the life as a mother and a full-time artist and enjoying the new challenges and inspiration it brings. “Lotta’s craft showcases her femininity via abstract expressionism. Her paint flows on the canvas and her lines make beautifully formed dance-like patterns. Where Lotta’s works stand out is how each individual artwork simply pleases the eye of the viewer. The beautiful paintings hold strong expression and carefully patterned craft, all in one single work of art. If the viewer has a chance to see the works in real life you will be opened to a totally new experience via the strength of surface design which covers and uncovers the many layers being brought alive during the working process. If ever I was to say “watch this space”, Lotta is one of those artists who you should follow.” — Rigulio Graak
