With each stroke, this painting tells the story of two kakadus, immersed in a universe of love and joy. The meticulous details in each feather, the depth in their eyes and the subtleties in their expressions, capture the indomitable spirit of these living beings. The vibrant color palette reflects the energy of life, and the artist, Elena Ivanova's attention to detail, invites us to reflect on the importance of mutual care and shared happiness in the animal kingdom and beyond.
Since I was three, I told everyone that I would be an artist. I was 100% sure of it. Since I was six, I asked my mother to take me to art school every year. But they wouldn’t take me, I was so little. At nine, my dream came true, I was accepted. I studied for four and a half years. Then 3.5 years at the graphic design department. And only at 40, I picked up a brush. And I began to make my dream come true. The oil technique has always seemed complicated, majestic and monumental to me, capable of remaining for centuries. And the smell of oil is simply divine. And from this, an incredible atmosphere of creation hovers in the air. I am sure that I will be able to catch the flow. And paint inspiring works. I really want to bring beauty and joy to people. I have always been inspired by the beauty and perfection of nature. Since childhood, I spent a lot of time in the forest and meadows. There was no doubt what to paint. I hope that my works will find a response in people's souls. And make them happier.
