Teodora ( Birt) Pica is a contemporary Canadian artist born in Romania in 1964. She is known for vibrant, sensual oil paintings that capture moments of energy, optimism, and a blend of the familiar and mysterious captured in oil on canvas. After completing a Bachelor's degree in Architecture from the University of Toronto, she developed a deep fascination with space, particularly the interplay between solid and void, light and shadow, proportions, texture, and color. After graduating, she shifted focus to art, attending the Ontario College of Art before becoming an independent artist. Her architectural training clearly influences her work, emphasizing structure, composition and the emotional weight of environments and forms. Hand crafted custom frames are constantly being created by the Brothers Griffith from the finest inlayed woods and veneers as well as hand laid gold and silver leaf for reasonable prices to perfectly complement the original paintings. The gallery houses hundreds of unique frames in standard sizes.
