Mirabela Varga is a contemporary impressionist who specialises in palette knife fine art and is currently working from her art studio in Byron Bay, Australia. Mirabela's work is widely recognised around the world with private collections across every continent. Her subjects range from iconic scenery, lane ways and cityscapes, to popular coastal views and stunning abstract pieces.
Mirabela's background and academic studies in business, tourism, acting and healing therapies have all been contributing factors in her development as a deeply inspired palette knife artist who creates vibrant art, bold in colour, rich in texture and deep in content.
Mirabela's discipline into palette knife art began when she met her mentor Saadi Al Murayati in September 2009, who she continued to train with for a duration of four months before being guided to launch her own business selling her much sought after paintings. Mirabela shares that her inspirations and creativity come from her daily experiences and surroundings, but mostly from the mysterious.
Mama Studio was created in March 2010 as a dedication to her mother who she enthuses 'taught me to see the world through the eyes of my heart'. Her mother, Olivia Varga, had passed away in the beginning of the year that Mirabela's training as a palette knife artist began. Mirabela understood that this was a gift from her mother, beyond time and space, as a thank-you for being her carer for the last 14 months of her life. Having recently become a mother herself in 2013, she can now truly understand how important it is to nurture imagination and encourage creativity in everyday life.
Mirabela's philosophy is that art should be accessible to everyone and believes that having a painting on your wall is akin to a symbol of healing through creativity. "In giving we receive - the more you give, the more you have" is another reason why she continuously returns to the easel. The dimensional depth and vibrancy in Mirabela's paintings reflect her depth in feeling about the exploration of living a life of Truth, 'our external world is a reflection of our inner world'. For this reason alone Mirabela's paintings are known to stimulate your imagination and evolve with you, sometimes finding something new or never seen before even years after hanging your painting.
