Original artwork description:

«Eureka!» That is how the Greek scientist Archimedes shouted when he made a brilliant discovery. «Eureka» in Greek means «I have found». The silhouette and lines structure of this bright and unusual butterfly graphically resembles the force fields formed by two magnets. The butterfly symbolizes the moments when we are most inspired by a new idea and passionate about our dreams. This butterfly painting belongs to the «Tropical Butterflies» series where I represent these wonderful creatures as the embodiment of energies that transform into feelings and emotions and touch our hearts deeply.

▶STATEMENT
I’ve always been fascinated by the intricate patterns on butterfly wings. I often imagine: if I could create a living creature, what kind of wings would it have? My fantasy butterflies reflect emotions, each one expressed through its own unique color harmony.
