New Modern Contemporary Art
Art is our expression of love, passions, imagination. It is a language of our heart and soul. What we cannot express in simple words, we express it in a visual sense. Through art, we touch other people’s hearts who speak our language; we inspire them; we lighten their world; we lift them up to reach their full potential.
Art comes in different shapes and forms: paintings, drawings, designed one-of-a-kind jewelry and clothes, photography, even delicious mouth-savoring home cooked meal… This is Dalia’s few of many passions. A lawyer that always creates and reinvents herself. Anything she touches, it turns to gold. Dalia is well-known artist that had her designed jewelry galleries in Sarasota, and now she expanded her imagination by coming back to what is in her heart – paintings. Innovative at its finest, she creates and plays with exquisite colors that she makes. By looking into her paintings, your world expands, too. You cannot help but immerse yourself and let your imagination play of what you can see, feel, touch… It lets you forget the world around you, and stand there in awe, and feel the deep connection with the artist and her creative heartfelt play. You become a seer, a feeler and you become one with Dalia’s masterpieces.
A true art, whether seen or created, has to be felt within the heart. Dalia Antoinette definitely achieves that. Dalia masterpieces are in private collections. Saks 5th Avenue UTC had her Art pieces in the front window for their 30 year Anniversary. To see Dalia’s one-of-a-kind, never reproduced paintings, you can reach her at her social media or private studio in downtown Sarasota.
“When time goes by, you change and your artwork goes to stages. When I was very young, I used to draw people and animals. I made drawings of every teacher I had beginning from elementary school, I made portraits. Later I was using watercolor and making landscapes, naturmort paintings using gouache paint , from about 14-15 years old, I became interested in fashion and Interior design (made albums of fashion drawings and design). I visited Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia at 15, which made a big impression on me, was studying art and artists of old world. My teachers told me Art and Architecture is my calling, but I went to Law school and was practicing Law for many years, but Art was always part of my life. I didn’t even mentioned my jewelry design, fashion design, Interior design.. I did it for years. With the time my style was changing, becoming more modern and progressive. Life takes you to new places, you can’t stay in the the same place … you have to grow…
My paintings are my emotions, energy, expression of the feelings, my adventure or memories… if I want to copy what I see, I do photography.
You Live And You Learn…you learn all your life…I am still learning!
When people are asking me when I start doing Art, my answer is: “From the day I remember!” – Dalia Antoinette
