It&#8217;s a fantastic achievement and well deserved endorsement after many years of diligently honing her practice.<\/p>\n<p>Aida is a compassionate, tender and very vigilant observer of human beings and the often alien surroundings that are of their own making. Whether depicting Japanese ceremonies in pastoral settings, or attending to a spirit of mysticism still faintly breathing in our urban settings, Aida always conjures up immersive atmospheres; sympathetic to how humans experience them. Whether depicting the grey of the city, sun-dappled autumn or a velvety drapery of darkness, Aida makes the world briefly intimate again, as suddenly as a cherry blossom tree.<\/p>\n<p>Beautiful limited edition Aquatints, similar in style to her prize winning piece are available for as little as \u00a3100.
