We take through a sense of color / day

Early spring. The wall of a Jelgava Exhibition Hall is decorated with large -scale paintings in golden frames. In them, the wigs of the gorgeous court ladies roses, at the bottom of the dresses, rabbits. The author of these paintings is Jelgavniece for several generations Anda Bushkevica. She teaches people to paint by inspiring and traveling their self -esteem. It was only in recent years that Anda began to focus more on the artistic journey.

Let’s go! It’s decided!

Anda has learned art pedagogy, encouraged by Father. « My father had learned that a new pedagogy department had been opened at Liepaja Secondary School of Applied Arts. He said, » Let’s go! It’s decided, you will learn there! « He saw what my talents are, and I am grateful that he encouraged me at that time, because at that age I was not too responsible and I would hardly have traveled so far, » Anda says. She and her classmate rented a room with a nice lady. Liepaja remains gray, wet, with eternal winds at that time, and soviet. There have been no bohemians, except for any pancake evenings. Also, studying at the Latvian Academy of Arts, Anda has not participated in the parties, as they had young children at home and ran to Jelgava train when she ended their studies.

After graduating from the academy, Anda seemed to have « painted » enough. The work of the pedagogy was well liked, so art went to the background. They were 90s when in art there was no freedom – Anda seemed limited and did not speak at the time. But when art began to teach others, he realized that it is necessary to set an example and deal with it. « When you paint yourself, operate professional things, get more in the mood of the color world, images or still life, because then look at it all in a different way. You are looking for light, shadow, nuances, tonality for one color. This is a retracting process. She started with a flower and her daughters painting.
