Blowing (2013) Original Oil Painting by Zhanna Kondratenko

A female figure rises through a field of yellow, caught in a gesture that seems both protective and liberating. Her body bends into the movement, while deep violet, crimson, orange and pink gather around her like fabric lifted by wind.

The scene remains deliberately open. She may be dancing, turning away, recovering her balance or stepping into something new. That uncertainty is central to the work: the figure exists in the brief moment when stillness begins to break and the body moves before the mind has fully understood why.

Broad brushwork, layered color and textured passages create a sense of motion without fixing the image into a literal story. The yellow background carries warmth and openness, while the darker tones hold tension, vulnerability and the memory of resistance. The result is an expressive figurative painting about change, instinct and the return of inner energy.
