“Latvijas vasara I” — DAILE x Amalija Andersone

As a child, I read fairy tales about foreign exotic lands, archaeologists, travelers and princesses. Now I continue to live in these stories - painting them and going out into the world to find inspiration for my paintings. In Dahab I found my love for camels and Bedouin princesses, in a Nubian village I fell in love with colorful African patterns, in Uzbekistan I started to paint the ancient oriental tales of the Silk Road, in the Greek islands I fell in love with the fifty blue shades of water, in Spain the theme of my paintings of southern men began, Latvian summer inspires me to paint gorgeous women with floral motifs, Bali I fell in love and drew a peaceful Buddha and palm trees in the pink sunset sky.
