Paukstiene's works are auctioned in Lithuania, where she is considered a major national artist. Born in Latvia, she was educated at the Kaunas School of Art in Lithuania, studying under Petras Kalpokas in 1938. After that she studied in Paris at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts, winning a gold medal in 1937. During the difficult war year of 1942, she participated in a significant exhibition, and in 1944 moved to Germany. After the war she appeared in Chicago, where she became a member of the Lithuanian Artists Union. In the latter part of her life in the USA she was a respected teacher.HER BIOGRAPHY FROM A TRANSLATED LITHUANIAN NEWSPAPER ARTICLE ON THE INTERNET: Jadvyga Paukštienė, who is a legend among our artists, with many international prizes and awards, calls herself an expressionist painter in the sense that she creates her images impulsively. The images are first acquired in the shape of an idea which suddenly appears in her consciousness; she then works feverishly until the "idea" is embodied in a painting with visual and thematic content. Subjects that keep recurring are family life, especially children and their mothers, nature and its flowers, the nude (which for her is an object composed entirely of colors: "The human body is nothing but colors"), and still life. The main, underlying idea for all this is Man, the rest is background." Color is her medium, which in her oils reaches the effect of three-dimensionality with a surface texture all her own. Lithuanian subjects? "Yes," she answers. "They are in my blood" — Madonnas with Lithuanian features, folk-costumed children, and dancers abound.
