About the artist

Uta Raina

Acrylic paintings inspired by the beauty of everyday places.

Uta Raina with her painting at a gallery exhibition.

Uta Raina is an acrylic painter drawn to the quiet beauty of ordinary places — a trail in late light, a lake at the edge of town, a city street after rain. Working from life and memory, she paints the landscapes, shorelines, and cityscapes of everyday life so that the places we pass without a glance become worth a second look.

Her work ranges from intimate small canvases to large statement pieces, and spans local trails and prairies, Midwestern lakes, Florida and Puerto Rico beaches, and Chicago cityscapes.
