As long as Tanya can remember she has been drawn to the still life paintings of Old Masters and says, “they speak to me on a deeply emotional level.” Her inspiration originates from seeing nuances of light and shadow. In her work, she strives to capture the light through dramatization of a subject and show how light alone can transfigure an ordinary still-life subject, at a specific moment, into something magnificent or tender.
