Magnificent Maya with Parrots – Symbolist Portrait

A luminous portrait of Maya, a circus artist, surrounded by her vibrant parrots. Painted in oil on canvas (40 × 50 cm), the work combines layered brushwork, translucent glazes, and subtle light effects reminiscent of Old Masters’ techniques. The parrots, with their radiant feathers, echo the performer’s own inner vitality, while the background remains calm and timeless. The composition balances intimacy with theatricality, celebrating both the individual and her bond with animals. With fine detail and glowing color, the painting invites the viewer into a world of elegance, joy, and symbolic presence—where the human and the animal share one stage of light.
