Press Release

Monica Deac creates richly textured paintings of abstracted landscapes with a mystical understanding and strong love of nature. In painting her canvases, the artist employs a unique approach, applying the oil paint not only with a brush, but with a palette knife and with her fingers. Inspired by the mysterious and sometimes hidden beauty of nature, Deac transports the viewer to a meditative place deep within each canvas. By allowing the viewer this moment of quiet reflection, Deac not only expresses the sublime power of nature, but encourages a kinship between the human spirit and the earth. Just as she manipulates color to elicit feelings and reactions from the viewer, Deac carefully chooses her subjects to serve as symbols for emotions and concepts. Therefore, Deac’s landscapes become not only representational renderings, but truly communicative works of art.

Born in Romania, Deac was profoundly influenced by her upbringing near the Carpathian Mountains. As an artist, she has continued to be inspired by the dramatic landscapes of Vancouver, British Columbia, where she currently resides.
