Family trip , 2024

The painting "Family Journey" transports the viewer into a magical world filled with symbols, allegories, and the warmth of family bonds.

At the center of the composition is a family traveling on an extraordinary vessel that blends elements of a ship and a fantastical city. A man in a richly decorated Eastern outfit points the way, while a woman in a golden dress plays the lute, creating an atmosphere of harmony. The children are engaged in their own activities—one gazes at blue birds, while the other curiously observes the surroundings.

On the ship’s deck rises a miniature town with a water mill and towers, where an angel lights a candle, symbolizing light and hope. At the front of the ship lies a majestic white lion, a symbol of strength and protection. A falcon hovers above the family, representing foresight and wisdom.

Golden fish swim beneath the water, enhancing the dreamlike quality of the painting and hinting at hidden treasures and mysteries of the journey. The warm, subdued color palette adds softness, coziness, and a sense of dreaminess.

This painting conveys the idea of a shared journey filled with wonders, discoveries, and deep connections between loved ones.
