When working on the painting "Poppies" the artist intended to realize and point out the essence of those flower's beauty, cut off details, that could distract. With childish curiosity thinking about it, carefully examining the flower and sketching it, more and more realizing what is so fascinating in this flower.

 

Its fiery color isn’t something that goes unnoticed in any landscape. The tenderness of its petals is so defenseless and tremulous that you want to look without a single touch not to spoil the beauty with a false move. Sunlight passing through petals literally lights them up as scarlet lanterns. And how tightly the poppy protects its seeds, while they are getting ready to continue its life in the new beginning...

Poppies

In her artworks the author deals with a problem, that looks so insignificant from the first glance, but no less important – the realization of personal role and  self-awareness of a woman in modern realities. What does femininity mean and how to be feminine? How can a girl in the endless informational chaos stop "looking for herself" and love her nature. ⠀

Femininity is a harmony. And the harmony the girl possess delights, excites, inspires. The dance is a natural manifestation of harmony. Therefore in author’s opinion the image of a dancing girl is very close to the essence of femininity. When ballerina makes a delightful pas, viewers hold their breath not to frighten off the moment. And only at the end of the dance you begin to breathe deeply, and the memories of the ballerina, of her dance do not leave for a long time. Looking at her aerial "flight", it's hard to guess how much strength, character and will it contains. It's an incredible balance of such polar qualities. The moment of "exhalation" is captured on the canvas. The moment when inner silence comes.

The artwork "Trust" is one of the first large-scale works by Tatiana Gryshchenko. The history of this painting is usually not revealed because the artist considers it too personal and invites her viewers to form their own perception.

Passion is the greatest energy driving us to accomplish unbelievable things. Passion in dance takes a special form. You are in the moment, absorbed by it. All-around becomes insignificant and overshadowed. There’s a special invisible bond appearing between the dancer and the audience. Feeling the audience,  filling with it, the all-consuming fire appears inside the dancer, which inspires to be fully committed to the dance.

The piece of art "In the River of Thoughts" is a follow up to the painting "The Girl with the Lotus Flowers," and the main idea of this work was to sort of softening the surface of the canvas, leave out any visual accents, and create an effect of work dissolution while observing it for a long time, allowing the viewers to immerse themselves in their own mental streams.

As a certain symbol of peace, the artist depicts a lake on a windless day. The lotus leaves seem to flow over the smooth surface, touching each other. It’s no coincidence that the author chooses to simplify their shape to a circle. According to forms’ psychology, this form’s primary meaning is eternity because a circle has no beginning or end. And the artist finds it an excellent visual image to depict the thinking process. In addition, the circles do not have any corners, which makes them softer and gives the viewers a strong feeling of inner harmony. The flowers themselves represent the very art – ideas born within us, and, once in fertile soil, blooming.

The painting “The Girl with Lotus Flowers” captures what is considered a great luxury these days – the time for ourselves. Have you ever wondered how much the speed of information flow has increased with the growth of digital technologies? And the most remarkable thing is that it makes us conform. The world is drastically changing, and there are no prerequisites, even for a temporary slowdown. 

Everyone is a creator to a certain degree. And any art has its birth in the moments when external noise subsides, and we begin to hear ourselves. “The Girl with Lotus Flowers” is about immersing into ourselves and for it. As a certain symbol of peace, the artist depicted a lake on a windless day. The lotus leaves seem to flow over the smooth surface, touching each other. It’s no coincidence that the author chooses to simplify their shape to a circle. If we turn to forms’ psychology, we’ll see that this form’s primary meaning is eternity because a circle has no beginning or end. And the artist finds it an excellent visual image to depict the thinking process. In addition, the circles do not have any corners, which makes them softer and gives us a feeling of some inner harmony. The flowers themselves represent the very art – ideas born within us, and, once in fertile soil, blooming.

There’s a girl in the center of the storyline. Her gaze is directed to a new idea, which she seems to be playing with. For sure, you know the feeling when you are carried away and are literally immersed in the process of creating something new.
