Floral Paintings by Taina Mantey

Open July 21 through September 27

Tuesdays - Sundays | 10 AM - 4 PM | Visitors Center Gallery

Taina Mantey has been a painter her whole life and more recently began a series of floral paintings that some describe as ethereal. Layered with color and suggestions of foliage, these works feature playful overlapping forms that seem to whisper to the viewer, inviting them to look closer and dive into each composition. Drawing inspiration from the beauty, movement, and complexity of the natural world, her paintings evoke both familiarity and wonder.

Taina is a lifelong educator who has taught students ranging from kindergarten through college, as well as adult learners through the Adrian Center for the Arts. Her passion for teaching is matched by her dedication to artistic exploration, bringing a thoughtful and expressive perspective to her work. Through this collection, she shares a vibrant interpretation of flowers and foliage that encourages viewers to pause, reflect, and discover something new with each look.
