Original artwork description:

Time for games.

In the painting the artist creates an atmosphere of joy and carefree, capturing the moment when the family enjoys the time spent together.

A little Webby is playing with a doll in the palms of dad, mom and daughter. Their warm hands express love and support, creating a sense of security and comfort. This moment conveys the simple but deep joy of family communication.

Naughty Pluto is having fun playing with a hose, splashing water on his friends: Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Daisy and Minnie Mouse. Their bubbly laughter and playful pranks fill the picture with life and energy. This scene embodies friendship and a carefree childhood, where every moment is a reason for fun.

However, not everyone shares the general delight. Donald Duck grumbles, which adds even more comedy to the overall picture.

The painting evokes warm feelings and nostalgia, recalling the carefree days when games were the main activities. It conveys a feeling of love, support and unity in the family, as well as the joy of friendship. The viewer can feel lightness and happiness watching the playful atmosphere that reigns in the artist's house.

Artists 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.
