About the Item
There are models of such amazing beauty that all dramatic ideas are postponed for a while and the artist simply begins to glorify joie de vivre, the joy of life. This theme was born in the summer of 2021, when already at dusk, tired after a long posing session, Evgeniy was sitting with Tanya in the studio's kitchen and she began to sing softly "Fly Me to the Moon", throwing her legs on the countertop. Fortunately, artists can repeat and capture the moment of happiness, so in 2022 the artist and his beautiful model were again sitting in the kitchen at dusk, drinking champagne and painting this picture.
