Daria Zavadenko is an expressive contemporary landscape artist whose work is rooted in emotional experience and a deep connection to nature. Painting primarily en plein air, she captures the fleeting moods of the natural world with bold, intuitive brushstrokes and vibrant color palettes. Her approach is guided more by feeling than by form, allowing each canvas to become a living response to the environment rather than a static representation.
Working directly from life enables Daria to immerse herself fully in the moment — the changing light, the shifting winds, the atmosphere of a particular place — all become essential elements of her creative process. Each painting is a dialogue between outer reality and inner emotion, reflecting the artist’s personal interpretation of the landscape rather than its photographic likeness.
Over the course of her practice, Daria has developed a distinctive visual language that balances energy and sensitivity. Her work invites viewers to not only see the landscape but to feel it — to experience the immediacy, beauty, and impermanence of the natural world. She regularly participates in plein air painting sessions, exhibitions, and continues to explore new ways of expressing her evolving connection to nature through art.
