All artworks

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 "Swamp Tales" by Daiva Karaliūtė captures a dense, mysterious swamp scene. It looks almost like a close-up view of tall, slender reeds submerged in water. The colors are muted, blending shades of green, brown, and gray, which enhance the swampy feel. Daiva Karaliūtė's style here is quite abstract. She blurs the lines between the water and the reeds, making it seem as if they are one. The brushstrokes appear soft and layered, giving depth and texture to the composition. The overall effect is both calming and slightly eerie, as if the swamp holds secrets whispered among the reeds. This style suits the theme of the painting well, creating a sense of intimacy with nature while also evoking the mysterious and sometimes hidden life within a swamp.
