An exciting and uplifting painting. It speaks, celebration, cocktails, happy times, “dance with me” type of vibes. Brush strokes and textures create a sense of movement, vibrations and flow. This will suit a room where natural light flows but doesn’t hit the canvas directly. This way a sparkle from the pink will not overwhelm the eye.
My son said “This looks like a picture you’ll see as you walk in a temple. It’s peaceful, flowy and calming.” He didn’t know what I had called it but picked up on the vibe. As I’ve grown older, I’ve become more “flowy”; it’s taken 50 years.
Flowers have been a symbol of celebration for many years, and roses, especially red roses, represent love and affection. Here is my take on eternal love; love that’s been through ups and downs, peaks and troughs, and still gone strong.
This artwork was inspired by “The traitors”. Yes, that’s right. I don’t spend much time watching TV and there are few programmes that captivate me – this is one of them. Each life story slowly unravels as people are pushed beyond their comfort zone and squirmingly adapt to the challenge in front. Human phychology – isn’t it fascinating?
Cool and mellow tones with a touch of gold warmth, like a sweet lullaby sang to a baby; like a song that gets your heart smiling. Using words is an incredible ability, yet words mean nothing when action is needed. I’ve been in this world almost half a century and it’s been dynamic. I wouldn’t be who and where I…
A large, statement piece, which at first glance looks somewhat insecure and self-doubting due to the negative space (white, blank canvas). Until one allows themselves to notice the protruding 3d elements, the blended pale notes, the drips, the framing lines and shining silver – it is all beautifully connected.
An abstracted representation of a calla lily and I am smitten by it. I don’t consider myself a floral painter, but I started a floral phase in my art in 2024 which has become a permanent phase 😊 I enjoy it so there will be more Petya-fied flowers in the future 😊
I’ve developed a real affinity for this style of artwork. There’s something about the central line – to me, it feels like continuity, like connection but also division. This canvas started busy but the off-white and gold brush strokes helped give it a delicate feel. Much to see and ponder over.
The first artwork I started in 2026 and the circular shape came so easily that I couldn’t let myself change it, instead I highlighted it with gold leaf. There’s such drama on this canvas, the contrast, the texture – it will need a room with natural light so all can be seen.

This idea of this painting was clear but it took a while to feel that I have put on the canvas the complexity of family life, as I see it. All relationships need continual effort from both sides to remain strong and nurturing, but when children arrive, everything turns upside down. Finances, emotions, dynamics, responsibilities - everything shifts into new…
