🌲 Summer Forest(My First Painting)
Acrylic on canvas, 70 × 50 cm, 2023
My very first painting—an atmospheric woodland that many say recalls the gardens of Keukenhof in the Netherlands, where my journey as an artist began. A True collectors piece!
Summer Forest is where it all started. Painted in acrylic on canvas while living in the Netherlands, it reflects the serenity of a woodland in summer. Viewers have often noted that it evokes the beauty of the Botanical Keukenhof gardens, with its layered greens and luminous dappled light. This piece not only captures the hush of nature, but also carries a personal story—it was my very first painting, the seed from which my artistic path grew.
A dreamlike meeting between earthly grace and the cosmos. Fine glazes and starry details trace an inner electricity and the pull of wonder.
Cosmic Horse and Woman
Oil over acrylic on canvas, 60 × 50 cm, 2024
A visionary piece blending the earthly and the celestial. Cosmic Horse and Woman portrays a powerful figure alongside a horse, both infused with cosmic energy and dreamlike light. Painted in oil over acrylic on canvas, the layered technique gives the work a striking depth and vibrancy. At its heart, the painting is a meditation on inner strength—a quiet resilience that connects human and animal, earth and sky, seen and unseen.
A moment of lift-off—water flickers, wings flare, and color breaks through the quiet. Mixed realism and abstract marks capture motion, resilience, and joy.
Emergence (Hummingbird)
Acrylic on canvas, 40 × 30 cm, 2024
A moment of fragile strength captured in flight. The hummingbird, with its jewel-like wings, becomes a symbol of emergence—rising from stillness into motion, from hesitation into freedom. Painted in acrylic on canvas, the work is alive with luminous brushstrokes that shimmer between delicacy and vitality.
For me, this piece reflects the courage of stepping into new chapters: small yet powerful, delicate yet unstoppable. It reminds us that beauty can emerge from the quietest of places, carrying hope with every beat of its wings.
A Monet-inspired garden scene where a blue bridge arches over lilies and mirrored color.
Waterlilies Bridge
Acrylic on canvas, 50 × 40 cm, 2024
Inspired by the timeless gardens of Giverny, Waterlilies Bridge pays homage to Monet while carrying my own interpretation of light and color. Painted in acrylic on canvas, the scene captures the delicate play of reflection, bridge, and bloom. Soft greens and gentle ripples create a sense of harmony, inviting the viewer to pause as if standing at the edge of a quiet pond.
A whispering tide under silver stars, painted in blues that soothe and invite.
Moonlight Seascape
Acrylic on canvas, 60 × 50 cm, 2024
A tranquil seascape bathed in moonlight, where gentle waves shimmer under a silver sky. Painted in acrylic on canvas, this work captures the magic of night by the sea. The sparkling reflections recall memories of the Algarve coast in Portugal, where hot summer nights are filled with the hush of waves and the glow of moonlight. A piece that evokes both calm and nostalgia, inviting the viewer into its quiet embrace.
Blossom in Quiet
Oil on canvas, 2024
20cm x 20cm
A gentle study of stillness—soft blossoms rest against a muted backdrop, inviting calm and quiet reflection. Velvety blooms and lilac sprigs set against a haze of gold and lavender light.
Blossom in Quiet captures the tender hush of nature in bloom. With delicate brushwork and a muted palette, blossoms unfold gracefully across the canvas, evoking peace and contemplation. Painted in oils on canvas, the work balances fragility with resilience—an intimate reminder of life’s quieter, enduring beauty.
Hello, I’m Teresa Canada
I began painting later in life, simply because I felt drawn to it. What started as curiosity soon became something I truly love doing.
Some paintings are inspired by places I’ve lived or travelled to, while others come from images or scenes that simply moved me.
Each painting is created by hand and sent from my home to yours.
