Original artwork description:

The painting Souls (oil on canvas, 160x160 cm) draws inspiration from the symbolic meaning of poppies, which often represent themes of remembrance, peace, and renewal. The vibrant red circles capture the essence of these flowers in an abstract form, focusing on their bold and striking presence. The artist hopes viewers will experience a range of emotions, from contemplation to energy, as they interpret the red blooms and textured brushstrokes. The repetition of circular forms invites reflection on nature's cycles and the fleeting nature of life. By using oil paints, the artist achieves a rich, tactile surface that conveys depth and texture, adding to the immersive quality of the work. The subject matter was chosen for its timeless beauty and emotional weight, allowing the artist to explore themes of memory and vitality. The abstract style emphasizes emotional impact over literal representation, encouraging viewers to connect personally with the imagery. The vivid reds are intended to stir passion while evoking a sense of calm through the soft, rhythmic arrangement of shapes. The piece challenges viewers to see beyond the form, into the emotions and ideas it evokes. Overall, the painting seeks to create an experience that is both visually and emotionally engaging.
