Collection Description

"My floral paintings reflect the delicate yet powerful essence of life, inspired by my homeland and the application of colour by artists like Van Gogh and Monet. Through my artwork, I strive to inspire joy and contemplation, celebrating the richness of life while reflecting the resilience of the human spirit.

Flowers, in their essence, are resilient, adaptable, and strong. They possess the powerful ability to change our moods and express beauty. My floral paintings, from my female point of view, serve as an analogy for the duality of womanhood—gentle yet resilient, fragile yet fierce. Guided by intuition and nostalgia, my works are infused with vibrant hues that echo the landscapes of my homeland; they can be serene yet chaotic. I enjoy creating and expressing myself freely, without references, using acrylics to paint each composition with fresh eyes."

Maria Isabel Rodriguez’s work explores the profound essence and enduring beauty of life, even in the face of adversity. Her art is a passionate reflection that intuitively captures vibrant colours and rhythmic forms, particularly through conceptual floral representations. Rodriguez lives and works in Montreal, Canada. Initially established through notable achievements in fashion illustration and textile design in Canada, she eventually yearned for a greater personal freedom and purpose. Mostly self-taught, she immerses herself in a fine arts studio practice, dedicating her energy to independent painting. Today, her work graces the walls of local art galleries, international publications, and private collections, showcasing her unique artistic vision and evocative style.
