Still Life with Sparrows (2020) Painting by Tatyana Palchuk

Tatyana  Palchuk ( Tatjana Palcuka-Rikane -Latvian language -port) born and raised in Rothko Homeland -Latvia, one of Baltic States, Capital city Riga Born 1954. December 6. Currently live in  small town of Iecava near Riga in our private house. Place with decorative garden and workshop.Being a lecturer of painting, drawing and composition I try to teach my students my professional skills of technique, drawing, composition and colour. Next is in the hands of time, where each genius is judged by time, spectators and specialists.Childhood memoriesThey are so many. Main feelings from childhood is continuous sense of happiness. Seems strange now as we were living poor life. My Father died when I was nine, so I don’t much.Most important memory from my childhood is when in the age of ten my mother bought me large album of paper, professional water-colours and good pain brushes. I felt my heart will fly like a bird and this positive feeling still lives in me.
Most difficult part in my creative work lifeI believe it is feeling, that I always paint old school, not modern way of today’s painting. I cannot follow trends of fashion and mainstream. Themes of my paintings are different. Was even more tuff when I was younger, many pillows left in tiers. Sometimes it is hard to be your self. But years ing and organically living that I have become mature and used to that.
50 words about work....
Painting is the way I think, my philosophy. As example – something gets me emotionally worried, interested and excited – that is impulse of beginning. Next I think much and share a result of my thoughts with spectator. Doing that best way I can do as a professional artist. I perceive a human being as a part of macrocosmos. And our selves as microcosmos with our internal galaxies. That explains why Nordic Renaissance artists are so intimate to me. I my paintings I try to put my thoughts, feelings, energy and emotions. This is why I think my paintings are not only mediator between artist and spectator, but painting live their own private life. Nothing can be born from emptiness.
I think that fine Art must first impact and affect our world of feelings and that should create response emotions, preferably – positive. That is key motive in my art.I try to this message in my art works – what is important to me spiritually and emotionally. First I search for interesting form. Composition of painting is my priority. That is most important, hard and interesting thing during the creation of painting. My compositions are always emphasized in details, balanced and without accident, everything has been created before in mind and spiritual process. I believe as result these paintings tune to thoughts, associations, kind of symbolism, but not too primitive or formal. Paint and drawing I consider as a very important instrument of expression.
