About The Artwork
This painting is aimed to protect its owner from all evils. In various cultures of the world, the bird is an important symbol. In ancient myths, birds play a major role in creating the world and controlling natural forces. Among them are the legendary Phoenix Bird, Gamayun, the bird of promise, the beautiful birds of the Garden of Eden, the Garuda Bird, and so on. Many of us know the beautiful myths that tell of these magical creatures. In Slavic mythology, for example, there is the magical Bird of Happiness. The Slavs had a strong belief in this wonderful bird and in its force. They believed it was crucial to have such an amulet in the house. They made it from straw, wood, and other materials. This bird was believed to drive evil and dark forces away from the house and family, and to attract goodness, love, and happiness! Apart from the image of the bird, the picture contains various symbols and sacred images that carry the energy which brings protection and healing, abundance and prosperity, support and patronage of the higher beings. The bird is the symbol of freedom of the soul, it represents the idea of separation of the spiritual from the earthly. The bird has always been deemed a mediator between the Earth and the Sky, between people and Gods. The spiral is a symbol of great creative power. It is a symbol of the universe, the infinity of life, vitality, and movement towards enlightenment and wisdom. The plant ornament symbolises vitality and the powers of earthly nature. The circle is a universal symbol, meaning divine origin, integrity, continuity, original perfection, eternity. Each picture has its own symbolism and patterns. If you wish, it is possible to order your own personal “Bird of happiness” with a meaning that is tailored to you.

From 2009 to 2019, the artist lived and worked in Dubai (UAE), frequently travelling to various beautiful parts of the world. Until 2012, the artist worked mainly in the style of realism, using different techniques (watercolour, pastel, oil painting). Then, she starts drawing in the fantasy style and develops a new unusual style, which can be compared to Art Nouveau. It can be described as her own unique symbolism. This style captures Anastasia's interest and she delves deeply into the language of symbols and their interpretation. As a result, her paintings are not only fine, yet captivating, combinations of colours and patterns, but also with profound, sacred meaning. Anastasia's exhibition activity also starts in the UAE. The artist takes part in group exhibitions in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and other emirates, presents collections of her works at individual exhibitions. She successfully participates in international art weeks and becomes a winner at international art competitions in Russia and abroad. Since mid-2019, the artist lives in Montenegro, where she continues to work in her two favourite styles - realism and symbolism. Anastasia Yablokova is a member of the Professional Union of Artists of Russia and a member of the National Pastel Society of Russia. Her paintings are in private collections in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Montenegro, America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
