Bon from Lisbon: Surf Mood (2026) Original Acrylic Painting by Irina Kurganskaya

“Bon in Lisbon: Surf Mood” is part of the playful “Bon in Lisbon” series, exploring character, travel, and personality through a stylized, illustrative approach.

In this piece, Bonny — a black and tan long-haired Toy Terrier — embraces the spirit of freedom and spontaneity as she rides the waves. Balanced effortlessly on a surfboard, she holds a coconut cocktail in her paw, turning a simple seaside moment into a scene full of charm and quiet confidence.

Rendered in a bright, cartoon-inspired style, the painting continues the series’ exploration of narrative and character, stepping away from realism to celebrate lightness, humor, and imagination. Bonny appears not just as a dog, but as a personality — playful, self-assured, and fully immersed in her own adventure.

This work invites the viewer to share in a moment of joy, where movement, sunshine, and a sense of ease come together in a vivid and uplifting composition.
