About

Photograph of Tanja Lategan

“My rules with every new painting are: Keep it fresh, Let the subject breath on paper, Remember the magic of the medium.”

Tanja emphasizes emotion and storytelling through her work, balancing between realism and abstraction her pieces illustrate the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature. She favours minimal subject matter continuously. Her playful nature is depicted in the feminine and whimsical details of her creations.

“Art brings me to a peaceful and happy space. It calms and grounds me”
