Roses
Oksana Protsiv
66 x 55
Paper, silk, ink, watercolor
In a realm where time stands still, two figures intertwine — an eternal embrace that transcends mere mortal existence. Here, whispers of love and longing paint the canvas, and every stroke carries the weight of eternity.
On the left, a figure with flowing crimson hair stands poised. Her form elongated, as if reaching for the heavens. She wears a simple white gown—a canvas for the emotions that swirl within her.
Opposite her, a shadowed silhouette. His features remain elusive, yet his presence is palpable. His attire—darker, mysterious—hints at secrets held close.
A delicate garland of pink roses encircles them. Each petal holds whispered promises—of passion, devotion, and fragility. These blooms, like their love, bloom anew with each dawn.
Amidst the roses, verdant leaves weave a protective canopy. They symbolize growth, resilience—the quiet strength that sustains love through seasons.
Neither figure reveals their eyes. Perhaps they’ve glimpsed eternity and found solace in the darkness. Or maybe their love transcends mere sight.
This artwork exists beyond minutes and hours. It’s a heartbeat suspended, a whispered promise that echoes across lifetimes.
And so, dear viewer, linger. Let your heart weave its own narrative. Perhaps you’ve known such love—a love that transcends time, that dances on the edge of eternity.
