There is a short but wonderful time in the middle of autumn: when the summer heat subsided, the trees were covered with openwork of golden foliage, in the evenings fog fills the lowlands with thick milk and cobwebs fly in the air.

There is a short but wonderful time in the middle of autumn: when the summer heat subsided, the trees were covered with openwork of golden foliage, in the evenings fog fills the lowlands with thick milk and cobwebs fly in the air. Evenings come quickly, bringing chilliness and a feeling of approaching winter. And suddenly there comes a short week with warm and clear days. They are somewhat similar to summer ones, but not so hot and much shorter. The knowledge that this will soon pass makes them especially precious.
So, in the life of a woman at the turn of 45, an exciting period of a new sense of herself suddenly begins. By this point, everything seemed to be settled down: home, family, work, friends. Youthful passions and dramas have passed, throwing from side to side in search of yourself has ended. Everything slowly fell into place. Looking at your husband with the loving eyes of a close relative, it never occurs to you to commit an act of incest with him. And now your close girlfriends begin to share their stormy romances with you, and you suddenly notice that you are not indifferent to signs of attention from strangers. Then, for some reason, you buy yourself a red defiant dress on the Internet that you would dare to wear at the turn of 16-18 years old and wait, wait ... we call this time “Indian summer”.
The painting depicts a woman in a red dress lying on a carpet of blooming pink tea roses. A white rabbit runs away from her. Next to the woman and the rabbit lie pink questions: “Was there love? and will it be again?

Есть в середине осени короткая, но дивная пора: когда летняя жара спала, деревья покрылись ажуром золотой листвы, по вечерам туман густым молоком заливает низины и в воздухе летает паутина. Вечера наступают стремительно, принося зябкость и ощущение приближающейся зимы. И вдруг наступает короткая неделя с теплыми и ясными днями. Они в чем-то похожи на летние, но уже не столь жаркие и более короткие. Осознание того, что это скоро пройдет, делает их особенно дорогими.
Так и в жизни женщины на рубеже 45 лет вдруг наступает волнительный период нового ощущения себя. К этому моменту вроде бы все устоялось: дом, семья, работа, друзья. Прошли юношеские страсти и драмы, закончились метания из стороны в сторону в поисках себя. Все потихоньку стало на свои места. Глядя на своего мужа любящими глазами близкого родственника, вам и в голову не приходит совершить с ним акт кровосмешения. И вот ваши близкие подруги начинают делиться с вами своими бурными романами, и вы вдруг замечаете за собой, что вам становятся не безразличны знаки внимания от незнакомых мужчин. Потом вы зачем-то покупаете себе по интернету красное вызывающее платье, которое осмелились бы одеть на рубеже 16-18 лет и ждете, ждете… это время мы называем “бабье лето”.
На картине изображена женщина в красном платье, лежащая на ковре из цветущих розовых чайных роз. Вдаль от нее убегает белый кролик. Рядом с женщиной и кроликом лежат розового цвета вопросы: “а была ли любовь? и будет ли снова?”

Natalie Levkovska is an experienced Lithuanian painter and illustrator. In 1995, she obtained a degree in stone, bone and wood processing from a master artist (Abramtsevo College of Applied Arts), and in 1999 she completed a degree in costume design (Vilnius Academy of Arts). She then became a costume designer for the cinema industry, and later a fur designer. In 2006, she decided to change her life: she moved to London to work in a design studio, and started to experiment oil painting.

She creates simple and poetic artworks, mixing surrealism and naive art. Her artistic universe is a kind of magic realism: she likes to show real life objects and try to bring out the magical pulsation of space. The plots of her creations are taken from her life: a birch glade near her house at different times of the year, the portrait of a loved one, her village in the snow... 

Natalie Levkovska have organized 19 personal exhibitions, participated in a lot of paintings and drawings events, and her drawings can be found in many private collections.

The Artist was highlighted in an article in Artmajeur Magazine:
