About the Item
"Forrest Nymph" (2016)
Oil on canvas
80 x 100 cm unframed
Painting was started in 2015, most of it was finished by 2016, the last touches done in 2019. Inspired by the 19th century French painter Bouguereau, she wanted to depict a nymph that inhibits the forest, wearing a flower crown made from Hepatica flowers, wild forest flowers.
The Painting’s Qualities
Lyubena Fox’s paintings are painted in several layers, using both the transparent and opaque qualities of oil paint. Each layer is applied after the previous has dried which makes the painting withstand time. It also creates a glowing, three-dimensional effect, which is due to the different layers showing though each other. These paintings are painted following the logic of how the eye perceives: seeing the details in the context of the form. To create a fulfilling experience, the images are composed of places, full of detail for the eye to explore and places where the eye can rest.
“The impressions of Lyubena's paintings on the viewer is so mighty, mesmerizing, grand, that it paralyzes the imagination with its realistic perfection.
Her paintings bring emotion of drama, mystery, love, desire and energy, represented by the vast creative power of her talent.”

Lyubena Fox
Hailed within the international art community as one of the 21st century’s most promising new artists, Lyubena Fox seeks to capture “the transitory beauty and emotions of life” in her intricately detailed still-life, figurative and nude paintings.
Born in 1994 in Sofia, Fox studied illustration at Bulgaria’s National Academy of Art, graduating in 2013. That same year, she moved to Florence, Italy, to study painting under John M. Angel at the Angel Academy of Art. After graduating in 2016, Fox continued her studies with artists Alessandro Dari and Roberto Ferri.
Fox cites the seasons as the underlying inspiration for her works, explaining they “symbolize the passing of time.” She says styles ranging from Baroque to romantic also inspire her, and she counts several artists as influences, including Ferri, American illustrator Teagan White and Polish Surrealist painter Jacek Yerka.
In many of her oil-on-canvas paintings, Fox uses a layering technique, taking advantage of the transparent and opaque qualities associated with oil paint to create a three-dimensional effect. She also displays a preternatural understanding of the relationship between light and shadows — this lends an ethereal feel to her paintings and is demonstrated in works such as the figurative Venus Cast, a still-life painting called Memento Mori and a nude piece called Forest Nymph.
Fox has already garnered critical acclaim and has won a range of awards for her work. In 2018, she won International Artist magazine’s Still Life Award, placed second in the BoldBrush painting competition in 2019, won the Best Artist Under 30 and Best Outdoor Still Life awards from the Plein Air Salon and was awarded the National Oil and Acrylic Painters’ Society (NOAPS) International Fall 2020 Merit Award.
Fox has exhibited her works at numerous art fairs and shows throughout Belgium, Italy, Spain and the United States. Her paintings have also been featured in several publications, including American Art Collector, Fine Art Connoisseur and Realism Today.
