- Love at first sight
Original artwork description
A sunny day floods a cozy windowsill adorned with lush flowers. Against this picturesque backdrop sits a true beauty – a cat with velvet-like fur and dreamy sea-green eyes. She gazes off into the distance, lost in her feline dreams.
Something truly special is happening below! From the world of cartoons, straight from the heart of Disney, comes Tom the cat we know and love. And he's completely lost it! His gaze is fixed on the beautiful stranger, his eyes brimming with love. His tongue hangs out, and red hearts adorn it, like vibrant symbols of blazing passion.
This comical collage painting is the embodiment of "love at first sight," where the tenderness and charm of a cat meets the clumsy, yet oh-so-sincere passion of a cartoon character. A scene that makes us smile and reminds us that love can be the most unexpected and the funniest!

Artist's Statement
I present a series of paintings "A Fairy tale in my Life" in which reality collides with a fairy tale come to life. In my works, I strive to create a unique space where classical art is intertwined with vivid cartoon characters, fairy tales and fantasy films. These characters seem to break into the daily flow of events, bringing with them irony and a bit of chaos, turning the familiar world upside down.
Since childhood, I dreamed that dolls would be alive, so that they could talk and move. One of my favorite movies, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, was a real revelation to me. In this film, cartoon characters live with people, and this idea has always fascinated me. I often fantasized about what would happen if my favorite characters lived next to us, interacted with our reality, disrupting the usual order of things.
In the process of creating this series of paintings, I realized that even though I had grown up, cartoons and fairy-tale worlds still occupy an important place in my life. They remind me of how important it is to keep a childlike sincerity and the ability to be surprised. Each work is an attempt to capture this amazing moment when two worlds meet: the real and the fabulous, where boundaries blur and the mundane becomes magical.
I hope that my paintings can inspire viewers to think about how a miracle can exist next to us, if only we are ready to see it.
