“About the painting of Mrs. Valentina Druțu, in a few words we can structure the following phrase: delicacy, femininity, imagination, colour refinement of the palette, a remarkable sense of harmony, a kind of calm and emotional warmth that envelops the contemplative viewer enchanting him when he is in front of a canvas. Professionally related to painting, her constant and successful concerns for the interior design have been highly appreciated by the beneficiaries and the public who have the opportunity to be in those functionally designed spaces, stylistically and refined-aesthetic in several public institutions in some of the cities of Romania” (Liviu Suhar, PhD).
