Over the years, I have experimented with a wide variety of techniques and materials to realize my ideas, but visual art has always been and remains my central form of expression. I explore and enjoy painting nature, especially water surfaces, reflections, and natural elements found in or floating on water. I am also very interested in portraits and figurative art, through which I can use visual means to tell both real and imagined human stories. In addition to paintings, I create botanical plant studies based on plants from nature and from my own garden, as working with plants gives me strength and inspiration.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":11696,"template":"","tags":[],"class_list":["post-11695","tapahtumat","type-tapahtumat","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>February Artist of the Month: Ligita Puri\u0146a - Espoon Taidelainaamo<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/espoontaidelainaamo.fi\/en\/tapahtumat\/11695\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"February Artist of the Month: Ligita Puri\u0146a - Espoon Taidelainaamo\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The second Artist of the Month exhibition of 2026 presents art by Ligita Puri\u0146a.
