Memories of summer 2 (2022) Original Acrylic Painting by Katia Solodka

In a world dominated by synthetic materials and AI-generated imagery, authentic human emotion has become the ultimate luxury. This painting is about authenticity, captured through multi-layered abstract expressionism.

Our lives are often consumed by the frantic pace of offices and endless to-do lists. In this rush, we rarely find the time to stop and simply observe. To me, flowers are a bridge back to ourselves. I created this piece using professional acrylic paints on high-quality canvas, blending my memories with a romantic, sunny airy vibe that is textured and full of light.

The garden I created with my own hands back in Ukraine was my sanctuary. There, I watched every step of nature's miracle: a sprout gaining strength, a bud forming, and finally, a flower blooming. I’ve translated this experience onto the canvas using expressive palette knives and brushes, creating a rich surface that invites you to touch the moment.

"Memories of Summer" is a captured moment of that contemplation—the intoxicating scent of roses. This perfect statement piece for a modern interior comes ready to hang with finished edges, so you can enjoy this window into summer immediately.

We become what we focus on. So, let it be flowers that surround you.
