Afternoon Break Print

Silva has brought the watercolor technique to a point of perfection. Her personal and recognizable way of painting, the precise lines and drawings laid upon mostly monochrome surfaces create a sense of unity between them. The light and shadow ratio makes the objects dynamic and interesting, soft and transparent colors render them velvety and unobtrusive. Carefully selected details bring to Silva’s paintings the impression of plausibility and abundance and can easily remind the observer of some forgotten memory or a story from the past.
