Having studied architecture in Romania , practiced there and in Canada, also taught design and drawing for many years, Ina has chosen to concentrate on painting.
The brilliance and texture that pastels are giving to painting, their vibration and life have persuaded her into using them for most of her paintings.
The subjects approached are mainly landscapes rendered in a modern impressionistic style, trying to convey to the viewer the feelings inspired by the mood of a place. Her still life compositions are showing the beauty of everyday objects and their meaningful relationship. She also loves doing life studies celebrating the beauty of the human body.
By participating in many juried shows and in painting workshops she is keeping in touch with other painters and maintains a permanent exchange of ideas. She has won prizes in numerous juried shows and her work is in private collections in Canada, USA and Europe.
Inak is a Master Pastellist member of Pastel artists Canada and a Signature member of the Conneticut Pastel Society
She is now living in Ajijic Mexico. For information about her paintings she can be contacted by email at inak.gi@gmail.com or by telephone at 376-766-3550
