Maria Briganti
Maria
was educated and raised in Austria, and introduced into a rich historic
and artistic culture from early on. Drawing and painting for as long
as she remembers, the passion for the visual arts stayed with her
and she returned to school for more art classes in 1996 after raising
a family. Maria primarily works with pastels, oil and watercolor.
She loves to paint still life and landscapes in a realistic style;
she also does charcoal portraits (people) or pet portraits in oil
or pastel. Commissions are welcomed.
Statement
My favorite studies
include old master’s technique. I love to paint from still life,
or do plein air landscapes. I also have painted portraiture, human
or animals, when time allows. My favorite mediums are pastel and oils,
but I will paint in watercolor when the inspiration of a subject calls
for such. Always trying new mediums and experimenting and being inspired
by other artists, I hope to continue to grow as an artist.
