 For me, it doesn't get much better than this: A large collection of my paintings hanging inside one of the best restaurants in the city. Plus, my artwork is printed on the menu! Thank you Blink Restaurant for selecting my work to pair with your award winning food and upscale atmosphere.

 Happy day! My commissioned painting (6 feet x 8 feet) for Mountain America Credit Union is finally finished! At the moment, it is on route to Alpine Art & Frame where it will receive a gorgeous, dark walnut frame. From there, it will travel to Mountain America corporate headquarters in Sandy, Utah where it will be installed on the main floor. Stay tuned for the installation photos! A huge thank you to Alpine Art & Frame, Method Studios and Mountain America Credit Union.  Happy day! I am honoured to have been selected to participate in the Summer Group Show at 15th Street Gallery. Many thanks to the family & friends who attended the event.  A very special opportunity today to paint a commission piece (6 feet x 8 feet) for Mountain America Credit Union thanks to my friends at Alpine Art & Frame in Salt Lake City, UT. Stay tuned for updates!  A huge & heartfelt "Thank You" to my friends at Root'd Home in Park City, Ut for featuring my artwork on their "Meet the Maker" blog series. I am thrilled and honored to be a part of such a dynamic, talented and generous community. Read the full story HERE  My new series of paintings is inspired by rust, peeling paint, abandoned buildings, ripped jeans, torn newspaper, and many surfaces found in nature. I am fascinated by creating paintings that look like they have been left outside to be exposed to the elements and the passing of time. We all have an internal compass. Following that compass isn't always easy, but it will always take us exactly where we need to be. My unique contribution is creating paintings I am passionate about, and teaching others how art making can be a vehicle for empowerment. Shop the Collection  I am thrilled to announce that daSilva Fine Art Studio has arrived! You are cordially invited to attend the Grand Opening on Friday, April 19 from 6:30-9pm.  Happy day! After 7 different art studios since our move to the Big Island of Hawaii in 2016 (I kid you not, I’ve done the math 3 times), I am thrilled to announce that daSilva Fine Art has found a permanent home in Salt Lake City, Utah! This is nothing short than a dream come true for me, and I can’t begin to express how thankful I am for the people that have encouraged & supported us during this extremely transitional time in our lives. Stay tuned for our upcoming Grand Opening event, new workshop announcements, FearLESS retreats, and the fact that my earnings get larger with the passing of each year.  This project was a little bit different than the usual.. I painted on a wall instead of a canvas! Since I was painting on wallpaper (a commission for a client in Park City) I had to use special paint and custom made rollers. The entire job took about 19 hours. |
