Artwork in the room
A self-taught painter has been drawing and painting since childhood. Daiva now uses a variety of techniques in her work - oil paints, acrylics, pastels, crayons, colored pencils, likes to paint different objects and in different styles, to experiment, because she says that otherwise it would be boring, and she is not afraid of new challenges.
The artist is currently obsessed with mysticism, the mysteries of man and the universe, and the afterlife. As the author says, we do not have all the answers. It is these unanswered questions that interest her. Whether the work is figurative or abstract, the viewer is left with the impression of fog, of a mysterious light penetrating through it, as if our eyes could deceive us. The artist often uses a palette of darker colours, as if to emphasise that in a sense we are in the dark ourselves, and that we can only perceive certain things very vaguely.
Most of the paintings created over the last few years have found their homes and have travelled not only to various Lithuanian cities, but also abroad (France, Germany, Holland).

About this artwork+
The painting portrays a dynamic and tumultuous sky, with sweeping brushstrokes that create a sense of movement. The palette is rich with a mix of warm tones—fiery oranges and deep yellows—melting into cooler shades of blues and grays. These colors seem to shift and blend into each other, suggesting the fleeting moments of twilight or an impending storm. The horizon is obscured, making the sky the sole focus, enveloping the viewer in its turbulent yet mesmerizing atmosphere. This abstraction allows the hues and textures to elicit a feeling of depth and emotion, as if the sky itself is alive with energy.
