BoldBrush Recommends: Tiina Seppalainen
Biography
Tiina is a landscape artist based in California whose work is deeply influenced by her Finnish heritage and a lifelong connection to nature. Born and raised in Finland, Tiina spent her childhood exploring the abundant natural beauty of a land rich with lakes, rivers, and the Baltic Sea. This early immersion in nature fostered a profound affinity for water, which continues to be a central theme in her artwork.
Tiina's artistic journey began in drawing and evolved over decades of experimentation with various mediums, including charcoal, pastels, ink, and acrylics. However, the fluidity and unpredictability of watercolors captured her heart during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. This medium allows Tiina to explore the subtleties of textures, shadows, and hidden colors, creating luminous dreamscapes that evoke nature's serene and healing power.
Her paintings, often characterized by transparent watercolors and soft brushstrokes, depict coastal landscapes from the Central Coast of California and the Big Island of Hawaii-two places she calls home. Tiina's work reflects her deep connection to these environments, telling stories of how humans interact with and are soothed by the natural world. Influenced by the Impressionists and classical masters, her representational style invites viewers to pause and appreciate the intricate beauty of their surroundings.
Balancing a long career in technology with her passion for art, Tiina's artistic focus intensified after her retirement. The pandemic's forced isolation allowed her to reignite her dedication to painting, transforming a lifelong hobby into a semi-professional pursuit. Tiina is now a Santa Clara Valley Watercolor Association member and actively participates in local art centers and collectives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Tiina's work evokes beauty and harmony, encouraging viewers to connect deeply with nature. Her paintings have been exhibited in group shows and art events, resonating with collectors who feel connected to her serene landscapes. Through her art, Tiina hopes to inspire others to look more closely at the world around them and find solace and beauty in the details of everyday life.
