In this captivating painting, Nadiya Ulyanich brilliantly captures the essence of a Malinois shepherd dog. The detailed brushwork brings out the softness and texture of the fur, making the animal appear almost three-dimensional. The artist's use of warm brown tones conveys a sense of loyalty and affection, qualities that are often attributed to this breed. The background seamlessly blends into the portrait, emphasizing the subject's strong, yet gentle demeanour. This painting is not just a portrayal of a pet; it is a tribute to the loyalty and companionship that dogs offer, evoking deep emotions and a sense of connection to the animal kingdom.
She was born in Ternopil Oblast (Ukraine). Lives in Kyiv since 1983. Economist by profession, artist by vocation. She started painting at the age of 30... Painting has been an integral part of her life for more than 25 years. Only after 10 years did the artist dare to sell her works. It was a hobby that sometimes provided additional income. Making your hobby your main activity has remained a dream for many years... In 1913, she opened an art salon-shop in Kyiv. It was a multidisciplinary company with three art galleries, a gift shop, two classrooms where painting and drawing lessons were taught to children and adults. Today, more than 500 paintings by Nadia Ulyanich replenish the private collections of Ukrainian and foreign buyers. The desire to transfer the beauty of the surrounding world to the canvas and to achieve harmony of form and color are the main criteria for washing "I don't know where I will live in a year, two, ten... I only know one thing: I will always write - I can't live without it!" (Nadia Ulyanich)
