Vesela Sultanova
About
Vesela’s homeland is Bulgaria. She grew up in the famed Valley of the Roses and the Thracian Kings. She graduated from the National High School of Plastic Arts and Design “Academician Dechko Uzunov,” and later from the St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo, in the old capital, specialising in painting.
Her life affirming themes are nature, esotericism, art, archaeology, and science.
As an artist, she does not disappoint the traditions of classical art.
Her practice spans a wide range of subjects, including figurative compositions, portraits, landscapes, wildlife, and still lifes.
Art, as a means of realising ideas, reflects her vision of a world in which humanity lives in harmony with all species on Earth.

Person
My father, whom I lost at the age of nine, shared and nurtured my love for nature, for science, and for the cosmos.My mother who believed I was an artist even when I was a child.The books, which were my companions.Michelangelo Buonarroti, who has asked me more questions than anyone else, from the Sistine Chapel: like the image of the Creation of Adam,with God and the angels shaped like a brain on one side, and Adam, depicted with a navel, on the other.The artist Boris Georgiev.My drawing professor at university, who taught me that paper does not grow tired, not until I lose the light in my drawing.The teacher who led me through the history of art, and the one who taught me perspective, who opened the door to the world of Alice in Wonderland.My professor of painting, who showed me the culture of the brushstroke upon canvas, and that art must pass through pain.Pain purifies, clarifies the mind, and connects you with the spirit.All those who have hurt me,and in doing so, gave me cause to reflect and grow.The wisdom of the ages:from Hermes Trismegistus, Lao Tzu, the Teacher Petar Dunov, and many more, I cannot name at this moment.And most of all - to the Creator, who gave us the soul, love, and the sacred chance to carry Him within ourselves.Life, which took away the opportunity to paint for 23 years.I couldn’t repeat what I’ve said - I no longer remember it.
Place
Our beautiful home, Earth. The light in England is warm. The sun gilds the world just as it does in my home country before sunset. This creates a wonderful atmosphere of coziness and warmth. There is an incredible magnetism in the landscape, and when you add the beautiful sky, every moment becomes unique!
Object
The place where light meets shadow.
