About the Item

This painting was created from life, with the artist carefully observing the objects over several quiet sessions. A porcelain cat and a copper teapot — two seemingly unrelated forms — became central figures in a still life that is both simple and contemplative. The artist was inspired by the quiet presence of these objects: the delicate, upright posture of the cat sculpture and the grounded, time-worn solidity of the teapot. Together, they suggested a kind of silent dialogue, as if each carried its own story and memory. The muted palette was a deliberate choice. Soft blues and greys in the background and tabletop allow the warmer tones of the copper to stand out, while maintaining a sense of harmony and restraint. The artist was interested not in bright contrast, but in the subtle relationships between light and shadow, warm and cool, object and space. The result is a still life that invites slow looking — a small moment of calm, painted with attention and quiet curiosity. Elena Bulatova is a Munich-based painter working primarily in oil, often in the alla prima technique. Born in Moscow, Russia in 1981, she received early training in a children’s art school, laying the foundation for a lifelong dedication to painting. Her artistic practice is rooted in academic traditions, yet she continuously seeks freedom and individuality in her work. Bulatova often paints en plein air, working directly from life to capture the essence of a moment with immediacy and sensitivity. She is especially drawn to subjects found in her everyday surroundings—landscapes, people, portraits, and the human figure—exploring the natural beauty and quiet poetry of the visible world. Over the past twenty years, Bulatova has developed her skills through a combination of self-directed study and mentorship with experienced artists. She has studied in diverse settings, including traditional icon painting in Moscow and the AktHof in Munich. Currently, she is enrolled as an external student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, deepening her engagement with classical technique and contemporary practice. The gallery guarantees the uniqueness and high quality of this work of art, confirmed by a certificate of authenticity. By purchasing paintings by Elena Bulatova, you make a smart investment, as the price of her paintings is growing every year. The team of curators of the Art-S-Gallery.
