Davina Giretto

Featured Artist
What Davina is open to is expressing the invisible, or that which is unnoticed, or as yet undiscovered. Words often come to her, they serve as a foundation for, or are embedded within the creative expressions. More recently, this unfolds in relationship with something mysterious and inspired. The artworks have a life force of their own, and she has the privilege of being a channel or conduit of sorts, to what wants to be born.

Artist Statement:
At five years old, I watched my father paint in oils, and I was awed and smitten by the experience, what seemed to be magic delicately emerging from the canvas. I studied a degree in fine arts and printmaking, and since then, my art has evolved in a whole new direction.

Be it watercolor, ink, mixed media, photography, or digital art, the pieces evolve in surprising ways, seeming to create themselves through me. Layers, patterns, movement, hidden messages and symbols, and energy seem to reveal themselves within the pieces. The are created out of a strong, spontaneous, compelling impulse, an extraordinary calling to partner with possibility itself.

“To create art is an honor, that is undeniable.”
