'In Beehive' is one of the paintings from 'You are on my mind' series from 2015. The artist focused her work on portraiture and on an atmosphere of a moment. She works with a vibrant and bold palette of contrasting colours, plays with the texture, visible brush strokes and colourful light. Joanna Pilarczyk paints her portraits in rather illustrative style where simplicity of the shapes, lines and blocks of colours are more important than realistic painting. 'In Beehive' is not only a portrait of Magdalena, a Polish friend of the artist but also a memory of one girly night. 'This was a special evening for us women, when we shared our doubts, vented our frustrations and wound up in laughter. The cold blue of the sky against the radiant rouge glow of the outdoors lighting. This array of colour mirrored by the glass candle holders scattering fragmented light upon us.
