Artist Comments
In this glowing portrait, artist Mary Pratt shows a fashionable woman surrounded by a blooming summer garden. Working with palette knives, Mary created this soft and delightful piece in hues of red and yellow. The colors evoke a warm and inviting feel along with the figure's smile that expresses content and happiness. "I pushed warmer color to accentuate the woman as she reaches down to pick the flowers," explains Mary.

About the Artist
Naoko Paluszak began her career by studying graphic design in Tokyo, followed by several years working as a designer, before switching to oil painting. Now located in the United States, Naoko continues to develop her style through different series of paintings that have varying degrees of abstraction. By bridging representational with non-representational forms, the artist seeks to stir personal memories and spark new narratives. “Art is about having a sense of mystery and drama,” she says. Naoko is also passionate about color. She mixes her paints based on the intuitive emotions that different colors can trigger within the viewer, and within herself.
