Hello, Dear Visitor! I am a Painter Aili Vint (née. Sarv) from Estonia, Europe.
My pictures are like flirting people: See meee, only me!!! - This is how much they enjoy Your attention. Thank You!
Heie Treier, Estonian Art Critic:
Aili Vint has not tied herself to any particular line, although her work is full of quotations of pop and op-art and tiny etchings transform. But she always keeps returning to the Sea. The Sea is in eternal motion and the details, which the artist perceives at a blink, - something mesmerizing, existential and quintessential, - is gone with the next moment. All that remains is an experience of a person who is able to revive and magnify this on a canvas. This is quite a direct approach to the subject of art and the result of which allows contact with the most diverse audience – an unusual phenomenon in contemporary high art at all.
A REUNION - RECYCLED ART BY AILI VINT
Aili Vint: It is not just a saying that in your future you meet your past. I come from the middle of the last century (born in 1941) and still paint the Sea the old-fashioned way. Miles and miles of it, from the home shore to the horizon. But now my old small abstract gouache paintings and tiny sensual etchings will transform into huge pieces as big as my oil marine paintings! - I can do anything better than me. This is my work today, - just like tasting high quality old wine.

PICTURES FROM 1962-2018
Aili Vint: When contemplating the sensuousness of nature as expressed in the Sea's psyche, one can see the invisible connection between nature and our senses Therefore, there is a subtle connection between my marine paintings, my pop-art, sensual abstracts and depictions of the female form.
In my Huge 3-D Digital Collages (even as big as the wall) I have combined my own large marine paintings (on the floor) with my smaller abstract gouache paintings or tiny sensual etchings (on the wall). They are like souls of the Sea that hover above the seascapes, just like ghosts that may appear for a moment and disappear the next. (even on the ceiling)
DIGITALLY MANIPULATED SERIES I: SEA & WOMEN
* THE SOUL OF THE SEA 2016
Estonian Writer Jaan Kruusvall: The world that Aili Vint creates while painting the Sea is fragile and elusive, easily vulnerable. Just like the whole world.
In these collages, like in novels, I tell stories of the Sea's sensuousness and emphasize its power and reckless moods, its tenderness. Have you considered how similar the soul of the Sea and that of a Woman is?

SUN LEAVES * TOUCH
Aili Vint: I remember, as a child, when I suddenly found myself standing in front of a real, live Sea. The Sea was incredibly vast and open and the bluest of blue. Before the Sun went down I watched, mesmerized, as Sun picked sunset colors and started painting on the Sea. Suddenly the world became unbelievably colorful. Powerful glow of colors was in front of me and behind me, above me and below me; I even felt it under my feet. At that moment I was absolutely sure that no one marine painter could paint so.
''When I grow up I will paint a Sun so, so red hot, that when you look at it, you will feel the heat from it and you'll be dripping with sweat!", I boasted to the other children. From Aili Vint THE SEA BOOK

A STORY
FORGIVENESS
When the Sun leaves, I sense both beauty and loss. I feel insignificance, sorrow, even inexplicable pain. Come back tomorrow! – The Sun taught me to forgiveness.
I can’t forget the day in September 1994 when the ferry Estonia went down on the Baltic Sea and 852 people died with it. There was no electricity in my summer house and I was oblivious to the catastrophe. When I went to the beach to watch the storm, I couldn’t understand what had happened to my Sea. The Sea was beside itself, disturbed and disheveled. As if trying to find something, but not able to - and in agony because of it. The Sea sighed and groaned alternately, in a murky brownish tone I had never seen before, and jaggedly broken waves.
The Sea was exhausted, but still unable to subside. Only just before sunset a big dark wall of clouds came in and drew its heavy reflection over the water like a blanket - the Sea calmed down somewhat. In the evening when I went to get some milk from a neighboring farm, I learned why the Sea had been in anguish. She was seeking forgiveness.
I felt hurt, when a year later, riding a bus on the Pirita coastal road, I heard a female voice sigh to herself: I hate that sea, and saw the woman turn her back to it. Yet the Sea was so calm and serene that day. So gentle. At the next stop I got off the bus and apologized to the Sea. The Sea is The Sea is The Sea.
