Vibrant Blue Portrait With Floral Motifs on Yellow Canvas, Original Arwork, 2024
Located in FISTERRA, ES
This acrylic painting, part of Natasha Lelenco’s You Are the One series, features a vivid and surreal portrait of a central woman figure with a bright blue face, framed by sleek black hair, set against a luminous yellow background. The subject’s green lips add a bold contrast, drawing attention to the artwork’s vibrant color palette. Surrounding the figure, playful blue flowers and abstract shapes evoke an expressive, almost whimsical narrative, blending surrealist and naïve art styles.
The canvas is characterized by its flat, saturated colors and dynamic floral patterns, which add depth and movement to the composition. This unique piece integrates elements of both figurative and decorative art, offering a lively exploration of identity and expression. The fluorescent quality of the colors creates a striking effect, although slight variations may appear in digital reproductions compared to the original work.
Technical Details:
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 55x55cm
Year: 2024
Style: Surrealist, naïve, contemporary
About the Series:
You Are the One is Natasha Lelenco’s latest exploration of individuality and collective identity through vivid, surreal portraits. Each painting in the series incorporates bold colors, playful motifs, and flat compositions inspired by naïve art and folk traditions. The series is designed to function as standalone pieces or within multi-panel arrangements, allowing for installations tailored to various spaces and collections.
Additional Information:
This artwork is ideal for collectors seeking colorful, thought-provoking pieces that bring both energy and sophistication to their spaces. Special discounts are available for purchasing multiple works from the You Are the One series. Natasha Lelenco also accepts commissions, offering clients the opportunity to co-create personalized artworks.
