About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Step into the enchanting world of Sophia Chalken’s “Sun Dance,” a captivating work that transports viewers to a realm of natural beauty and tranquility. This original oil painting on canvas beckons observers to immerse themselves in a scene where the delicate elegance of cherry blossoms meets the expansive majesty of the sky. Chalken’s masterful use of texture infuses the composition with a sense of depth and realism, as the trunk of the cherry blossom tree stretches upwards, guiding the viewer’s gaze towards the bright blue sky above. Painted from a perspective that looks up from below, the tree’s branches create a dynamic interplay with the vivid blue background, while the pastel pinks of the blossoms burst forth, adding a soft, ethereal quality to the scene. In the foreground, the textured bark of the tree provides a tactile contrast to the smooth, vibrant sky and the delicate petals. This intricate detailing invites viewers to linger, appreciating the nuanced interplay of light and shadow that brings the painting to life. The concept of “Sun Dance” revolves around the harmonious dance between earth and sky, embodied in the cherry blossom’s graceful ascent towards the heavens. The painting captures a fleeting moment of beauty, evoking a sense of renewal and hope as the blossoms reach for the sunlight. This juxtaposition of the grounded tree and the expansive sky invites contemplation on the interconnectedness of nature and the passage of time. Signed by the artist, this captivating artwork is ready to take pride of place in any setting. Whether adorning the walls of a serene living room or adding a touch of elegance to an office space, “Sun Dance” is sure to inspire and delight. This mesmerizing piece is available for acquisition both in person at Signet's gallery location in Chelsea or can be purchased directly online. Don’t miss the opportunity to bring a touch of natural splendor into your own space with Sophia Chalken’s evocative painting. Artist biography: Sophia is a Fine Art Contemporary Wildlife and Nature Artist, specialising in high quality oil paintings. Known for her powerfully evocative paintings created through vibrant colours, light and intricate detail, with some of her art embellished with 24ct Gold and Silver leaf and it has been said many times to have “a spiritual feel to it”. The creative journey began at Winchester school of Art where she completed her BA specialising in Textile design. This led to a job as a textile designer for various big-name high-street stores, designing soft furnishings and ceramics. Soon after Sophia was head hunted for a job as a Fine jewellery designer for the Crown Jewellers Asprey and Garrard, working with Royalty, celebrities and the elite. Sophia’s intricate designs included tiaras, Jewellery suites, rings, watches, Faberge eggs, enamel clocks and much more. Sophia also created many impressive pieces for middle eastern royalty. She studied gemmology, became an expert in her field and her attention to detail leant well to her career. After starting a family Sophia decided to work for herself and set up a small business teaching art to a wide range of ages ranging from 5 years old to 90-year- olds in care homes. It was very rewarding and the students looked forward to her classes. Having always being creative, her fine art career was born out of the pandemic. During this time Covid had a profound impact on her health and she became quite unwell for over 6 months and was unable to walk. In order to mentally cope, Sophia decided to paint and began to build up her own work as an Artist. She began to display her work on social media which allowed her work to be seen and this led to her gaining regular commissions, as well as being approached by gallery owners, who she now works with as a full-time artist selling in galleries around England. Wildlife plays a big part in Sophia’s Art and supporting various charities that work in conservation. She is delighted to be in a position to be able to raise money through her art sales and make sizeable donations to them, which is very important to her. Sophia finds both art and her appreciation of nature an amazing form of therapy and escapism, deep happiness for her comes from being able to combine the two. Satisfaction from finishing a challenging piece is highly rewarding in itself, but Sophia says, “the best part is when a client truly connects emotionally to my art”, then I know the value of joy that piece will continually bring.

Cherry Blossom Dream by Sophia Chalklen is an original painting. One day I was sat looking up at a cherry blossom tree and thought how beautiful it looked from that angle. I took a photo and had to paint it. The beautiful light breaking through made it even more beautiful. I have used various metallic pink leaf as well as 24ct gold leaf on the trunk to create that extra sparkle and magic as the light hits the painting. Due to the nature of the metallic leaf it looks different in different light. Contemporary artist Sophia Chalklen sold online and in our gallery at Wychwood Art.
