About the Artwork

I wanted to paint this for Easter. This is “Äidin Suru” – “Mother´s Sorrow”.
We all know, how the story went. Despite all the horror, these still was and is Faith, Hope and Love. That is why I wrote those words in English, Aramean and Hebrean on the Golden Circle.

This also in honour of Diego Velasquez “Christ Crucified” (1632), and in honour of all Pidgeons of the world.

About the artist

Artistic Statement:
“Painting is my Mission and my means to pay back for all the good things I have been given. Over and over again: If some one´s Heart is a bit warmer after viewing my work, my task is fullfilled”.

Biography:
When young Liisa painted all the time, dreaming to study to be a pro painter in art. Then she suddenly buried the Dream and did not grab a brush any more.

But Life made her start again, after four decades. She found her Mission four years ago and now paints continuously.

In the meantime she has graduated from Milan Art Institute (USA) web Mastery Program in 2023, has been taking part in many curated and group exhibitions as well as given solo exhibitions.

She is a member of Finnish Artists Association. A Letter of Honour from the Luxemburg Art Prize competition in 2022 was given for her by the Pinacothèque museum located in Luxembourg. Praise in an art review was written and published by Renee Phillips, Director/Curator, Manhattan NYC, NY in 2024.

Proof of Provenance

A Proof of Provenance is an official document that establishes the genuine nature of an artwork. Issued by a credible authority, this may be signed directly by the creator, the gallery representing the creator, or the specialist who collaborated with the artist. In cases of traded artworks, authenticated bodies or designated foundations may issue such certifications.

These documents are comprehensive, usually detailing the artist’s name, specifics of the artwork (including title, creation date, materials used, size), and ideally, an image of the art piece itself.
