Welcome to art studio of artist Inese Poga!

Art studio

Art studio is a necessity for any visual artist. I am lucky to have a real place which displays my art and has become not only my studio, but also my personal art gallery. I intend to post all news and events which will take place in my art studio and art gallery in this blog. I will share my painting tips, techniques and my thoughts about art and creativity, as well as present my art philosophy here.

It starts in spring

The weather has not been too nice this spring, but summer hopefully will bring more sunny days for outdoor painting. Painting from reality is the best way to get in touch with both: painting and nature. The settings are very suitable for creation of art, so is the season.

Inspiration for my watercolor and acrylic paintings

My watercolor and acrylic paintings are often based on scenes just outside my studio. The huge backyard offers plenty of subjects for painting. There are more and more fresh ideas originating in my head as everything blossoms and gets more beautiful outside.

Enjoy creativity of my art studio and my art blog

I hope everyone joining me at my art studio will have great time, gain very useful experience, acquire good painting skills and become excellent in drawing. I also hope you will return to this blog again and again to get new inspiration and to possibly buy some art.

I love going large

I paint very large watercolors, full sheet and larger, and they exceed 1 meter 20 cm with frame in height and are about 80 cm wide , as well as large and medium size acrylic paintings up to 30 x 40 in or 76 cm x 1 m and 2 cm. The Blossoming orchard is on display in Europe. Well, and I am in Canada.

To welcome my most favorite season – spring, I painted the wild blue forest anemones. Blue anemones are the first messengers of spring. They symbolize all that is alive and starts thriving again.

Still life is what I paint excellently. I love the shapes, I adore contrasting colors. Still life offers numerous variations in color and composition.
