SIRENA. Submerged pale woman with green hued reflection.
Whether he is painting brooding beauties or phantom landscapes, Taras Loboda has a way of using color that seduces the senses. The son of a famous artist, I.I. Loboda, Taras was born in Ivano-Frankovsk, Ukraine and graduated from the Institute of Art in Kiev. He moved permanently to Prague in 1993, where he has become a leader in the Czech art scene. Loboda's women, with sad eyes and exaggerated lips, are usually adorned with vivid scarves, hats or floral concoctions, and command a long, intriguing examination. His ?lakescapes,? with reflections of wild, colorful vegetation and flowers, suggest an enchanting radiance that may be at the end of an elusive rainbow. Painting is signed and dated by artist, lower right. Artist signed and dated to verso.
