Over Maria Arias
I am a part-time painter and part-time chemical engineer, I am a good engineer, but nothing brings me more job than delivering a painting to a happy customer and seeing how much joy it brings.
The profound love for animals leaps from the canvas into the hearts of beholders. I want each painting to be a fusion of the joy derived from the love I feel and receive from animals and remarkable women. The subjects often revolve around animals, as a tribute to the vital role they have in our lives, both physically and spiritually.
Painting is for me a therapeutic experience that resonates with each stroke of the brush—crafted with diverse techniques such as acrylic, oil, brushes, and the occasional finesse of an airbrush.
I was born in Venezuela, with French nationality, and I found a home in the open-minded and beautiful country of the Netherlands, paintings have been an important part of my integration and homecoming journey. The transformative power of art acts as a catalyst for heightened self-esteem, balance, and inner peace. Art is to me more than a medium of expression; it opens a door to my integration into a world where creativity and emotion converge.
