Oil palette knife on gallery canvas.

36x24"

The painting is done on a gallery canvas. Sides are painted black. It shows end of March scene in Terra Cotta Conservation Area north of Toronto. There is a lot of water in the shallow areas of the lake where the ice has already melted. The deeper parts of the lake are still covered with ice.

Maria Iva is a nature lover and a tireless hiker. She finds her inspiration in exploring beautiful scenes of Southern Ontario. She often paints on location with soft pastels on sanded paper and later recreates the scene on canvas in her studio in oil using a palette knife. Her pastel paintings are usually quick plein air sketches that capture the light and the feeling of the scene. Her oil paintings are much bigger pieces that are richly textured and colored. Using wet-on-wet technique she applies thick palette knife strokes that create depth and plenty of details. In both media Maria uses clean vibrant colors that allow her to demonstrate the effect of sunlight on the scene.
Maria started painting after having a successful career in education and in a short time achieved a professional level that allowed her to exhibit and sell her work.
Maria is an Elected Member of the Society of Canadian Artists and a Master Signature Member of the Pastel Artist Canada.
