"New Venus" (2026) Original Oil Painting by Lena Vylusk

This surreal painting boasts subtle humor and a poetic atmosphere. In the foreground is an open mother-of-pearl shell, like a giant seashell. A calf lies comfortably within its shell: its brown-and-white fur is softly illuminated by a warm light, its muzzle turned in profile, its gaze calm and slightly pensive. The shell's edges are golden-pink, with soft transitions of color, emphasizing its "precious" quality. The image is built on an unexpected juxtaposition: a fragile seashell and a terrestrial farm animal. Through this metaphor, the calf becomes a "pearl," a symbol of tenderness, purity, and the vulnerable value of life. The impression is a tender, slightly ironic odyssey between myth and rural life, filled with soft light and a sense of peace. Signed on the back and front of the canvas, the work will be carefully packed in a protective film and thick cardboard.
