“Today’s renaissance of still life paintings brings joy to my heart and fuels my passion to create paintings that are timeless and transcendent. I strive to create unique images that not only decorate a wall, but cut through and open a three-dimensional space of associations for simple storytelling.”

Tanya’s Meaningful Memories heirloom paintings are a priceless and enduring legacy that define your own story and pay tribute to your heritage. Masterfully painted and thoughtfully composed, a deep personal connection to an original painting evolves as your narrative is revealed through her skilful brushstrokes.

The process begins with Tanya’s visual concept originating from the gathering of one’s cherished keepsakes, family mementos or relics. This is the framework for the painting. Relevant conversations then follow to pull selected objects and story together. In her studio these design elements are then arranged within a composition and are painted from life. Classical methods, traditional materials and a harmonious palette are employed as her creative process interlaces your personal story with your treasures, and a beautiful work of art emerges.

Her efforts succeed as her paintings awaken the viewer to the brilliance of storytelling, past and present. With each new story she is confronted with a fresh challenge. It’s in those challenges she says that lie the real art of painting, and the fulfillment to both artist and patron.
