Originally from Italy, Daniela Garau is an artist based in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath.
Member of Visual Artist Ireland and the Irish Society of Botanical Artists, Daniela’ s subjects are diverse, starting from Irish landscapes to wildlife, including still life, pets and people’s portraits.
Influenced by the style of the Italian old masters, Daniela produces highly detailed work by closely observing her subjects and painting them in her realistic style. The aim of the artist is to positively impact the viewer by bringing attention to the importance of our environment, creating a work that can express the harmony and beauty of Nature.
Daniela recently delved into the world of abstract painting, adding it to her existing portfolio. This new style has not only sparked her artistic motivation but also provided a platform for cultivating her imaginative side. She works with various mediums and surfaces, from oils on canvas to polycolour pencils, including watercolours, graphite and acrylics.
Daniela has successfully taken part in several local exhibitions and events. Starting from the ‘Dunamaise Arts Centre’ exhibition, from Dec 2023 to Jan 2024, where her work ‘Balance, Still Life of a Pineapple’ was selected by Blaise Smith RHA; continuing with ‘The Red Stables’ exhibition, the ‘People’s Art’ exhibition, and last but not least, ‘St. Philip’s Church Art’ and the ‘Delgany Golf Club’ exhibitions.
In 2024, the oil painting ‘Enchanting Beauty’ was selected to be part of the ‘Bord Bia Bloom’ Art Exhibition at Phoenix Park in Dublin.
For the first time in November, Daniela has successfully been part of the ‘Artsource 2024’ exhibition in Dublin, which is an important milestone for any talented professional artist like her.
Today, Daniela Garau’ s work is appreciated by art enthusiasts and collectors from Ireland and around the globe including USA and Australia
