The author's work "Labyrinth of tenderness" (2019, canvas on a stretcher, oil, 30 40 cm) is part of the series of works "Magic Garden of the Soul". This is a topic that I have been researching for several years. I watch flowers from spring to late autumn. Through the flowers in my paintings, I express my feelings and emotions.
This is a great time when peonies bloom. These are one of my favorite colors. White peonies are an incredible beauty and fragrance. Sometimes a flower can convey something that is difficult to put into words. Oil is the best material that can convey both tenderness and expression. I paint my oil paintings because oil is a more natural material, more alive. The same applies to the canvas.
This picture is about love, dreams, hope, beauty. Everyone can find something of their own in it.
I spent many hours drawing each petal, admiring the play of light and shadow. I wanted to show the beauty and tenderness of this particular flower. Nothing extra, no other colors. White peony on a background of dark leaves.
