About Tanya

Tanya Swiegers

Self taught artist, Tanya Swiegers gets her inspiration from the old Flemish masters. She adapted the Flemish technique (glazing) to create exquisite artworks by applying layer upon layer of oils with a very fine brush. Although this time consuming process slows down production, the end result is one that amazes and pleases the most discerning eye. The mood created by her masterful use of light and shade takes the viewer into a journey of times forgotten. Her work does not necessarily have a deeper meaning or message, but aims to stir deeper emotions in the viewer. Tanya's beautiful paintings of still life's,dancers and nudes are high in demand with the art collector of classical works.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Ek streef om deur my werk ‘n estetiese gestalte aan alledaagse voorwerpe te gee. My werk poog om ‘n stilte en kalmte by die kyker te ontlok.

My onderwerpe ( figure en stillewes ) stel ek deur middel van dramatiese "chiascarro" (spel ) of meestal kontrasterende kleurgebruik sensitief voor, sonder ‘n ekspresiewe aanslag, om dit ‘n objektiewe kyk-ervaring te maak.

My tegniek berus op fyn kwashale en die aanwending van lae kleure om 'n bepaalde effek te verkry. In die meeste gevalle maak ek van ‘n beperkte palet gebruik om atmosfeer te skep.

My kunswerke bevat nie noodwendig ‘n dieper betekenis of boodskap nie maar het eerder die ontlokking van ‘n emosionele gevoel by die kyker ten doel.
