Poolside Donut (How I Learned to Swim), oil on canvas, 48 x 60 inches

ABOUT NAyA

As a painter living and working year-round in Provincetown, MA, since 2014, I revel in the magical light and energy of the Outer Cape Cod. My art invites viewers to experience the effervescent pops of delight within the deepest, most fulfilling joy. With each piece, I blend saturated colors and playful forms inspired by mid-century charm and a sense of whimsy. I love vibrant color palettes, toasty schnauzer smells, and sweet marzipan treats.

In 2025, the Provincetown Public Art Foundation commissioned my first mural, installed on the trap sheds on MacMillan Pier.

If you’re fond of sand dunes and salty air…, acrylic on coated aluminum panels, 80 x 238 inches, 2025, Provincetown, MA

This mural is a joyful tribute to the indulgences of summer. Set against the backdrop of the beach, a playful still life unfolds across a patterned tablecloth: a pistachio-almond pudding topped with cherry and cream, a radiant peony, a bowl of ice cream, and a sugar-dusted donut. A gemstone catches the sunlight, a cocktail invites celebration, and a hovering bubble adds a note of magic. Together, these vibrant details capture the spirit of summer in Provincetown, inviting viewers to pause, enjoy a treat, and savor the moment. Listen to a special Spotify playlist inspired by the art.
