Daniela Mejia

Daniela Mejia creates highly detailed, realistic beach paintings through an ancient Flemish technique of slow, delicate brushstrokes. She includes figures in these paintings to demonstrate the power of human presence and to downplay her own subjective interpretation of these scenes. Mejia believes that an artist’s inner vision should be expressed naturally and effortlessly. “What is landscape without a human perception? Does landscape exist without an observer?” she asks viewers.
