In her work, the artist highlights the vitality of the plant world, capturing the flexibility and elegance of flowers. It demonstrates how plants adapt to conditions that are not always favorable for life, yet simultaneously make them stronger.
ROSA is sincerely grateful to Nataliia Kupczyk for her collaboration and the stunning painting “Hydrangea” that adorns the cover of the ROSA Gallery spiral watercolour sketchbook. The artwork captures an ocean of tenderness and beauty within a single flower, as the lush hydrangea bloom fascinates with its grace and elegance.
The spiral binding allows you to quickly and easily open and close the sketchbook, it’s easy to turn the pages, and thanks to micro-perforated pages it’s easy to tear out paper from the general block. The sketchbook is ideal for working with watercolours, water markers, and liners. It is also suitable for gouache paints and acrylics.
