Acrylic painting “To Jump or Not to Jump?” (2025) by Nataliya Bagatskaya (Ukraine)

The gentle inclination of her body, the serene focus in her posture, and the soft light on the folds of her dress draw the viewer into her emotional space. This connection transforms the scene into a reflection of our own moments of transition—the calm before change, the beauty of uncertainty, the quiet strength needed to move forward. The minimalist composition allows every detail to stand out with clarity. The crisp whites, the sculptural flow of the fabric, and the clean lines of the pool area create a balanced harmony between realism and subtle surrealism. This simplicity invites viewers to project their own stories onto the scene, making the artwork both visually captivating and personally resonant. The result is not just a picture, but a narrative that continues to unfold over time. Dutch Amsterdam™ acrylic paints and Unico Italian canvas were used. The surface is finished with satin varnish, and the edges are painted in the background color. This painting is on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame. It is carefully packaged in a cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap. The artwork is signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
