About the Item

Hawaiian landscape · North Shore · American artist . plein air · alla prima · impressionism · textured painting · tropical light This large plein air painting (15x22 in) was created in late spring on Oahu’s North Shore, early in the morning at one of the coast’s most iconic but quiet spots—Shark’s Cove. Though this place is known for its vibrant coral reef and tropical fish, in the early hours it remains peaceful and almost deserted. "One morning, I arrived just as the sun began to rise and was struck by the long, lilac-colored shadows stretching across the sand.", said Daria about this painting. "Within an hour, they were gone—so I returned again and again to capture this fleeting moment of stillness and color. It was a classic Hawaiian morning: warm, with a light breeze, brilliant turquoise water, and solid white clouds moving slowly across the sky." Painted alla prima on American canvas, using Italian and French oils, this work is richly textured with thick brushwork, especially in the foliage and sand. Finished with a protective varnish, it reveals the full vibrancy of color when viewed in natural light. A wide, dark frame will enhance its depth and warmth beautifully. Painted in the U.S., this piece is available without international shipping or customs fees. Daria Molostnova lives and works in Hawaii, where she discovered the true beauty of the surrounding world. Her paintings reflect the local reality, expressed through her personal cultural code. A graduate of the Russian State University of Design and Applied Arts named Stroganoff, she earned her master's degree, blending the traditions of classical education with a contemporary artistic perspective. Daria grew up in a family of professional artists, her mother being a renowned designer and lead doll artist of the Soviet Union. Since 1997, Daria has been a member of the Moscow Union of Artists, and since 1998, a member of the International Union of Journalists. She has taught at the Russian-Italian Art School Perotti and the Correspondence People's University of Arts. She has conducted numerous workshops both in Russia and abroad, as well as team-building activities for companies such as Harpers Bazaar, Mercedes, and Coca-Cola. Daria has participated in international artist residencies in such countries as Bosnia, France, and Italy. She is a participant in many Russian and international art fairs, competitions, and exhibitions. Currently, she collaborates with galleries in Hawaii and California. Her works are held in several Russian museums, as well as in private collections both in Russia and abroad. 2025 her painting "Big Storm" won the first prize in the art competition of the Plein Air Magazine in US. Daria's paintings are a fusion of flawless craftsmanship and a vivid sense of life that her work conveys. The inspiration and light embedded in her paintings will stay with you if you become their owner. The team of curators of the Art-S-Gallery.
