Blue Irises Dance (2021) Original Mixed-media Painting by Vitaly Leshukov Soldatov

This large vertical painting transforms a bouquet of blue irises into an expressive flow of color and movement. Against a light, almost airy background, the flowers appear to rise upward through intense shades of blue, turquoise, green, orange, and burgundy.

Rather than pursuing botanical precision, I focused on the living energy of the irises: the curves of the petals, the movement of the leaves, and the inner rhythm of the bouquet. Free, richly layered brushwork brings the individual flowers together into one dynamic vertical composition. Viewed closely, the surface reveals sculptural impasto, palette-knife marks, and independent fragments of color; from a distance, they unite into a vivid floral image.

Painted in oil on canvas, this original one-of-a-kind artwork measures 120 × 70 cm / 47.2 × 27.6 in. The canvas is stretched over a 3.5 cm / 1.4 in deep wooden stretcher and will be shipped stretched. It is unframed and ready to hang immediately upon arrival.
