O
ftentimes, we
reminisce about our
memories, remembering
their faces, their laughter,
the way the sun set, the
happiness of it all, the
small moments that
make a lifetime worth
having. This universal
experience is precisely why it’s important to capture
those moments, so that we can eternally recollect
our favorite or even visualize our deepest fantasies.
Artist Irina Roberts knows this well. Inspired by
creating pieces that will forever bring happiness
and art that turns off everyday distractions, Roberts
delivers paintings that showcase the world for how
truly inspiring it is in ways that are relatable to the
everyday person.
Anyone who witnesses Roberts’ pieces could
certainly find something within them that sparks
memory, entices their thoughts, and evokes a
familiar emotion. The artist has a way of blending
the intricacy of human feelings and remembering
into works full of color, full of life, and full of
remembrance. Pictured on Roberts’ online gallery
you’ll see that familiar beach view that makes you
miss your very first coastal trip where you dipped
your feet in the salty water for the very first time,
you’ll see a similar silhouette that reminds you of
your very first love and the time you two strolled
along the beach, and perhaps you’ll find joy in the
pet portraits that happen to look like your beloved
four legged friend playing fetch with you while waves
crashed onshore.
As a coastal artist, Roberts captures the essence of
living by the bay with sand on your skin and salt
in the air. She highlights the beauty of living in a
coastal town with its charming creatures, mystical
sea life, and snapshots into beach life and the people
who lead it. Art enthusiasts can expect to recognize
her works by the techniques she uses as a self-taught
artist. Those who view her works can witness the
deep blending of ocean blue, the combination of
bright tones and hues, along with the soft glow of life
itself. Irina Roberts’ mission is to evoke happiness
in the home. Some of Roberts’ commission works
display this as her clients proclaim their utmost
gratitude and positive opinions on the pieces.
Roberts has stated that over time her style has
changed, but that she now appreciates the power of
color and is not afraid to let it take over in her recent
works.
“Choose your own path.”
