Baby ostrich bird portrait painting combining minimal surrealism, theatrical shadow and contemporary figurative art on linen canvas. Baby Ostrich is an original acrylic painting by Sofía Cristina Jiménez from her Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner series, a body of work exploring isolation, theatrical space, humor and visual ambiguity through simplified animal figures. Combining bird portraiture, minimal surrealist painting and carefully constructed light effects, the work transforms an apparently simple scene into a subtle meditation on presence and perception. At the center of the composition, a small blue ostrich occupies the corner of an undefined architectural space. The figure appears simultaneously vulnerable and self-possessed, creating a psychological tension that gives the painting much of its character. Rather than presenting a naturalistic environment, the artist constructs a stage-like setting where space remains deliberately unstable and open to interpretation. A defining element of the work is the dramatic projected shadow extending behind the figure. The shadow exceeds the apparent scale of the ostrich and becomes an active participant in the composition, suggesting an alternative presence, a hidden narrative or an amplified emotional state. This theatrical treatment of light introduces a surreal dimension while preserving the painting’s quiet and contemplative atmosphere. Throughout the Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner series, Sofía Cristina Jiménez uses isolated figures to explore ideas of vulnerability, displacement and symbolic identity. Humor and tenderness coexist with subtle psychological tension, allowing the works to operate on multiple levels simultaneously. The exposed linen surface remains visible throughout significant areas of the composition, contributing warmth, texture and material presence. The contrast between the raw support, muted background and concentrated blue figure creates a refined visual balance that reinforces the painting’s sculptural quality. Executed in acrylic on linen canvas, the work functions equally as a contemporary bird portrait, a minimal surrealist painting and a distinctive contemporary artwork for residential and design-focused interiors.

Girl with a rooster. 2020. Oil on canvas, 70x65 cm Colorful bright artwork girl with a rooster Nugzar Avtandilovich Kahiani was born in Poti, Georgia in 1952. He studied at the Art College named after Nikoladze. Then he went to serve in the Soviet Army from1970 to 1972. After completing his military service he entered the Stieglitz St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Industry at the faculty of artistic metal, from which he graduated in 1986. During his studies, he has been actively engaged in painting. His favorite artists are Gauguin, El Greco, Botticelli, Turner and Picasso. Works of artistic stone He worked also with stone, cornelian and onyx. But his soul gravitated to bright and blustery color, and so he has became engaged in painting. At first his paintings were quiet, with muted tonal gamma. The color image was built on the play of hues and halftones. Such a careful elaboration of color educates the taste, sharpness and delicacy of vision. Gradually, the painter became more experienced, and his paintings acquired assurance and power of maturity, blooming in colorful brilliancy. Nugzar's color preferences The color of Nugzar’s paintings is deep and multi-layered. It is woven of infinite number of hues and filled with light. At first sight it may be difficult to recognize the shapes in the play of flickering color dabs. The figures appear gradually, they draw the first breath just before our eyes, crystallizing from the color heap. The painter is attracted by major tonality and motives that years ago could be called “the gallant feasts” - repasts, assiduities, music parties, and airings. After somewhat daemonic, infernal imagery of early paintings, it has appeared the theme of “Le joie de vivre,” the joy of life. Source of inspiration Born in the ancient Kolkhida, he keeps the blissful pagan feel of entirety and completeness of being. It is embodied almost literally in his favorite personage auroral gorgeous-bodied beauty of a girl. He grants these forms even to Olympian inhabitants - Aphrodite, Athene, Arthemide, let alone the Bacchants. I remember unwittingly that Niko Pirosmani similarly painted on his impoverished buckrams the luxurious prince repasts and languid, elephantine beauties. Working style But his style is not bounded by grotesque parody, as well as the irony is not the only aspect of his world outlook. In his landscapes we can catch the ecstatic admiration with Nature. In contradistinction to his favorite impressionists, he never paints from nature and never bears in mind the particular place. It is just a blooming Earth, studied very closely, so that the trees are cut by the edges of the painting, and at the same time it is a bird’s eye view revealing infinite, boundless spaces. Nougzar says that the landscape for him is first of all a color ensemble. He can just leaf through the illustrated journal, nourishing his eye with color in various combinations, and so get the impulse to create a ‘physical’ landscape image. Probably, his landscapes are no less fantastical than his figure compositions, but such is his talent, his mission - to make the world more beautiful and gentle than it is in reality.
