Current exhibition
Media participation

Daniela Stoykova's paintings are revelations, thrills and trepidations, exciting memories, expectations... They affect us, they are touching, and at the same time, they are emotionally constructed, in one breath, with the ease and gentle flow of the brushstroke. The artist's approach is through impressionistic variations, building recognizable images. We are immersed in landscapes with sentimental taste and romantic moods. The impressionistic oscillations are characterized by relatively small and subtle, yet visible brushstrokes, open composition, and an emphasis on the accurate depiction of various states of light, often highlighting the effect of elapsed time.

The paintings of the budding talent Daniela Stoykova are a contemporary rendition of beauty and light. With the incredible selection of colors and nuances, she manages to fill us not only with positive emotions and good mood, but also to banish the grayness, fear and sadness from our daily lives. Expressiveness and inspiration are combined with the pursuit of beauty and love, romance and hope. Hope that deep feelings and high sprits, small gestures and moments of our existence make us what we are, namely - people who enjoy life and love passionately.

This style is easy to remember and is perceived by the connoisseur of art in an extremely positive way, which is highly valuable for a young artist. Because of this, her artworks have a great success and are admired by many people. Also its important that she is very active in social networks and on her own website. I wish the artist a lot of successes!
