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 "Serenity" showcases a tranquil landscape enclosed in a circular frame. The scene is dominated by an expansive sky rendered in soft hues of blue, gray, and subtle streaks of white, suggesting a serene, perhaps early morning or late evening sky. Below this soothing skyscape, the horizon is tinged with gentle oranges and pinks, implying the glow of sunrise or sunset. The lower section of the circle reveals an open, rolling landscape bathed in shades of green, with hints of golden light touching the earth, which adds a sense of calm vastness. The landscape seems uninhabited and untouched, emphasizing a quiet solitude and the natural beauty of a subdued, serene environment. The whole scene is encased in a simple, elegant white frame that complements its peaceful essence.
