When she is not painting Antaya likes to travel to gather references or do Plein air studies for her next works. Antaya strives to take the everyday scene that is often overlooked, and present it in a new light. If she can draw the viewer in, make them feel the warmth of the sunshine, the coolness of the shadows, or the heaviness of the air before the impending storm then she has succeeded.
