LaraLuna – Art is passion

»The artistic name and brand LaraLuna were created because I have been painting with my heart and with passion for over twenty years, so my works of art could be marvelous gifts for You. I put my soul in my artworks and this is the reason I would like to send them in the world, so that they will bring beauty in your homes, work and social places.«

»Art is for me like the precious air that I breathe and the fresh water I drink.

Expressing myself through visual art for me is a necessity, it is like breathing. I feed my soul with the harmony of colors and shapes that I can pour on the white surfaces. I am searching for inspiration in the world around me and in my inner world of feelings.«

Art for me is a research. I do research myself as an artist through artistic expression.

Art is a game.

Art is magic.

When there is a white surface of paper or canvas and a variety of colors waiting for me, I am like a little girl, a child, whose heart is beating of joy eagerly awaiting the moment to play. I am thrilled for the amount of possibilities of the play with colors, shapes, lines. And I let go myself to the art materials. And I research and experiment. And I am curious and I play with the materials. And I do not plan anything in advance. Everything happens and forms from itself. Without my will or control. Like I don’t have the influence on the final image.«

» Art it’s like a thousand spices. It’s like a perfume, that draws you to itself with its harmony of scents.

My artworks are created by using brushes and watercolor pencils to balance the color lines and color shapes that create a harmony. The harmony in me raises the feeling of Beauty and Beauty is what I am looking for in every artwork and it attracts me. «

» Art is  pure passion to me. Art is life to me.

Every time I paint, draw or somehow create, my respect, enthusiasm and love for art are growing. And with it my respect, enthusiasm and gratefulness for life itself are growing too. «

Dedication
» On this occasion, let me thank my parents, who have always been encouraging me on my life path with all the possible love and have taken care of me and are still caring.
Thanks to my darling Andrej, who helps me with everything that I do not know and I am not able to do, and stands by me as a partner and as a “patron”.

My acknowledgment goes also to the Education Center Eksena, where I always get support and who gave me the knowledge that changed my life and gave me wonderful relationships.
With the help of the people who teach The Eksena theory I allowed myself to create art and at the same time to complete my doctoral studies. They believed me when I did not believe in myself. Art – through creation – it’s life for me, and that’s why I am grateful to them for the life that they allow me to live.«
