Artist's paintings stand out from the other famous Lithuanian painters with their unique and ever-changing coloring and its diversity.
A. Petrašiūnaitė's large format canvases are dominated by dark green, green and brown-pink, blue and red tones and hues. Precisely the color combinations, their harmony and conflict and unexpected abstracted image of human and nature provide the painter's works with a lot of subjective and emotional dynamism. In the Lithuanian painting context she stands out with a subtle style, painterly narrative expression and variety of topics. In the artist's work dialog with nature and being in a familiar environment is of the utmost importance as well as an image colored in personal relationship, an event, a suddenly noticed detail from everyday life and its "inscription" into the convivial, colorful interior where signs and recognizable contours remain. Considerable amount of attention is given to the different nature motifs.
