This 2023 figurative portrait is a modern paraphrase of Johannes Vermeer's iconic work, presenting a lady with an earring and a mask. Lena Smirnova executed this piece with acrylics on quality 320 g/m oliepaper, varnished and adhesively mounted on a board. The artwork comes ready to hang in a vintage frame, adding to its nostalgic charm.
I paint therefore I am. I believe that art should be provocative. Things are not what they seem they are - this is a major motto in my works. I take my art seriously but I do not take myself seriously in art. When an onlooker smiles looking at one of my large canvasses or at a small caricature on paper, then I know that the goal is achieved: Yes - one more smile in the world! I am represented by two art galleries in Denmark, and usually exhibit at annual art festivals 2-3 times a year.
