Artist Statement

In this painting, I conceived a double meaning. The first forward direction begins to develop from the name. The word "vacation" evokes pleasant associations of relaxation, gentle sun. The word "flamingo" adds exoticism and expands the scope of the dream, taking it to a tropical country with unusual enchanting views of nature. The viewer sees the heroine of the picture sitting in a gazebo in the light of the setting sun and admiring a flock of pink flamingos.
But this picture has a second side. What if thinking about vacation is just a dream? If now she is sitting on a velvet sofa and admiring the new wallpaper on the wall of her room? A ray of the setting sun warmed her face and hands and carried her dreams far beyond the horizon.

This picture envelops the viewer with delicate creamy shades in one of its half, adding juicy fuchsia and young greenery in its other part.

The painting is painted with oil paints in 4 layers, each shade shines through from under the other, creating the effect of radiance.
On the canvas, the lowest layer, a special artistic textured paste is applied. Thus, I created the effect of the wall of an old house, which adds a sense of immersion in the era of the 60s of the 20th century.

The sides of the painting are painted in a dark color so there is no need to frame the painting.
Made on high-quality canvas (100% Linen, canvas density 400 gr / meter) stretched on a high quality wooden stretcher frame. Used the best Russian oil paints produced in Russia, the city of St. Petersburg.
35.4 * 29.5 * 0.79 inch 90*75*2 cm
I did not attach the hangers on the back side, and I will attach them to the package.
The painting is accompanied by a certificate of copyright issued in Russia by the city of St. Petersburg.
