Born in Latvia, now living in Galway, Diana studied painting in the Latvian Academy of Arts. She also trained as a classical musician. Her vibrant paintings can be viewed as a singular vision of the Irish landscape through the eyes of a European artist and musician. Nature, music and life experience are what inspire her and her paintings document her life like a diary. Diana has had seven solo exhibitions and her paintings are in private collections all over the world.
One of the best Art Galleries in the West of Ireland, The Whitethorn Gallery showcases work by some of the finest contemporary artists that Ireland has to offer, together with a selection of artists from the UK and Europe personally selected by Award Winning Artist & owner Anne Merrins. Spread over 7 rooms, providing ample space for the casual browser as well as those with an eye to buy, The Whitethorn Gallery is one of the many reasons that Clifden has become such a desirable destination for visitors from all over the globe. The gallery has contributed to the extensive art collection in Ballynahinch Castle, Connemara’s most prestigious luxury getaway.
