Elwira Maszara
„One could surmise that this talented watercolorist is making up for lost time. In a four-year span during which many artists would be satisfied completing a dozen or so projects, Maszara has produced over 300 works and exhibited in thirty seven art shows. She has earned fourteen ribbons of recognition and three times was awarded the Popular Choice Award. […] Animals, both domestic and wild, are perhaps her favorite subjects, but she rounds out her portfolio with portraits, figures and landscapes. She has a free style in her application, with a special gift for revealing emotions and bewilderment in the eyes of her subjects that tell a story for the viewer to ponder and interpret. […]
When looking for inspiration for her paintings she looks to contemporary watercolorists Jean Haines, Ann Blockley, Yoko Nagayama and Gary Brenfield.
Maszara is a member of a number of art associations including the Santa Clara Valley Watercolor Society, Morgan Hill’s Valle del Sur Art Guild, and the Los Gatos Art Association where she serves as the program chair.”
