About the Item

Artist Comments
A colorful view with vibrant gardens of pink and orange blooms flourish amidst a serene body of water. Artist Colette Wirz Nauke takes inspiration from the warmth of summer and the beauty found in nature. She renders this piece using expressive brushstrokes combined with thin layers of acrylic paint. "I love recreating the calmness and peace I feel when painting water."


About the Artist
Colette Wirz Nauke gathers inspiration from her surroundings and memories and fuses them with her imagination. She has been greatly influenced by Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, especially techniques used by Monet, Cezanne and Bonnard. She tries to use similar approaches in her own work. Colette spends her summer traveling throughout the US and abroad in search of her next muse. When she's not painting, she enjoys visiting art museums and going to parks in search of cherry blossoms in bloom. She currently lives in New York.
