More About Yaffa Wainer

Question IconWhat inspires you?

The recurring change of seasons perpetuates the eternal versus desolation. In my works I connect between two eternal elements, art and nature. Deliberately I remove all hints of progress, with the exception of houses I leave nature as pure as I would wish to experience it.

Question IconDescribe your creative process.

Painting for me is a means of true expression and a means of discharging my energies. Through my creation I channel my personal experiences, thoughts and impressions. Painting for me is a process of coping with my thoughts and the colors on the canvas, while my hand and brush are just the means.

Question IconWho are some artists that have influenced your work?

While living in the Philippines in the 1990s, she began painting professionally. Her mentor there was Filipino artist Roger San Miguel, known as “Father of Filipino Impressionism”.
