About the Item
This contemporary abstract, expressive, and vividly colorful portrait of a faceless woman, titled "Venus", is part of Natalya Mougenot’s ongoing series devoted to women. The work is both intimate and universal—a visual exploration of what it means to embody strength, sensitivity, and transformation as a modern woman.
Rendered in a vibrant blend of acrylic and oil paints on stretched cotton canvas, "Venus" portrays a woman in a quiet, contemplative state. Her faceless form becomes a vessel of emotion and symbolism, inviting viewers to connect with the work on a deeply personal level.
For Mougenot, this painting reflects a pivotal moment in her artistic evolution. Created through a process of full creative trust and spontaneous experimentation, "Venus" emerged organically—guided by emotion rather than strict intention. It is a piece that encapsulates her inner journey as both an artist and a woman.
Part of her "Women" series, this artwork stands out for its thematic depth. It speaks to the resilience of the feminine spirit—the balance of inner strength and emotional sensitivity. In Mougenot's words, a modern woman is “a warrior with a kind heart and a sensitive soul.”
The painting is sold unframed and arrives ready to hang. Interior-styled photos are included to inspire your space.
This is a one-of-a-kind original painting, signed on the front, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. It will be carefully packaged in a sturdy box with layers of protective bubble wrap to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.
Please note: Colors may vary slightly between the artwork and how it appears on your screen due to lighting and monitor settings.

Natalya is a contemporary artist from Lyon, France. She was born and grew up in Kazakhstan, the country known for its spacious steppes and low mountains. She arrived in France 2003. Since that moment she loves her adoptive country. She started painting in 2017 and used it as a therapeutic and emotional release during times of crisis when she was struggling with radical life changes. She incorporates this therapeutic approach in her artistic creative process till now. Several years ago painting became more than a hobby. It became a way of expressing her emotions and visions, a successive reaction to events of either personal or general concern. Her artist statement: “ I paint as it’s a necessity for my soul to express itself. Being creative for me is overcoming the restrictions. My art is a piece of my soul. I hope my art inspires reflection, provides a release and forms connection at other people’s souls”. She has developed her own vision of art through practicing a lot. She makes use of varying degrees of figuration, abstraction and impressionism by adding a contemporary twist. Abstract art for her is an interesting challenge for understanding inner feelings, a self-expression based on an intuitive approach. In figurative art her main subject remains women. Her artworks representing women contain the raw emotions of women. She also communicates the importance and the power of strong female relationships: “Women are enriched when they bond with each other”. She works in series: among them are "Heart-mind connection" of abstract artworks, "Women", "Bond", "Florals", "Springtime"... She uses various mediums ( acrylic, oil, watercolor, oil pastels) to create her unique artworks either on canvas or on paper. But she mainly uses acrylic as she works very quickly and expressively by finishing her artwork in one sitting. If Natalya had to pick one quote about her art, she would say : " Art is the reflection of the soul". Natalya goes with her gut and intuition to choose the colors, the lines, the shapes and the texture. She hopes her artworks will give a home a unique personality by filling it with life and color. Her sources of inspirations are Claude Monet, Paul Cezanne, Henri Matisse, George-Daniel de Monfreid, Paul Gauguin. She also admires the artworks of Joan Mitchell and Banksy.

Pancho Malezanov’s wild cars have broken into the Art moorhouse gallery- London!
I have read that designers strive to give character to cars, often inspired by nature - sometimes their headlights look like the eyes of an owl or an eagle, grills snarling predatorily like shark’s teeth, the body curved like a purring kitten orsleek like a hungry tiger ... not to mention the many horses under the bonnet ...
It is this nature of cars, including some of the most expensive and vintage brands, that artist Pancho Malezanov unveils his new series "(Auto) portraits".
First of all, because he has experience with painting animals and knows their desires well. Secondly, because he sees their characters embodied in metal, leather and glass. The result is futuristic – a car, yet behind the windows, the character of a powerful untamed beast is revealed. Not always, of course.
How can you not trust a brand whose radiator grill is colored like a rainbow, whose multicolored lights wink at you, all stemming from Malezanov’s imagination. He has managed to turn the car into a living creature who prowls around the urban jungle.
You will stand up and pay attention after seeing such a car. And you’ll be sorry that you drive a boring black or white machine. No problem – simply listen and take inspiration on how to bring colour to your life and to your car from this exhibition. If you do not want to take a risk with an insanely expensive classic brand, at least you can hang up your own Malezanovartwork on your wall and lift your mood by how he intertwines technique with technology, combining the flamboyant cars with detailed backstories and turns them into colorful toys for a grown boy’s room.
Mila Vacheva – "24 Hours" newspaper
The prominent art critic Maximilian Kirov writes about the author:
..."As an artist Pancho Malezanov always prefers to interact with nature directly, but it is difficult to call him a landscape artist in the exact meaning of the term. He is not interested in particular details, but prefers to unite the entire scenery through a randomly situated point of view, which does not take into account the horizon line or the static position from which each natural object is seen. This point of view almost always has a peculiar “bird’s plan view”, which allows him to contemplate a panoramic scene. This is a “bird’s eye vision...
