Artwork location: France
This painting "Angel", created in the style of abstract expressionism and spiritual symbolism, was done by French artist Natalya Mougenot during a challenging period in her life. She needed to believe that there are invisible forces that may help us, and through this artwork, she sought to express that deep spiritual connection. The piece combines the expressive, energetic use of oil pastels with abstract forms, where an angelic figure emerges through fluid, dynamic lines and vibrant colors. The central shape, reminiscent of a triangular angel, is surrounded by a burst of pinks, purples, and oranges, which create a sense of movement and energy, mirroring the unseen forces that guide and protect us.
Loose, expressive brushstrokes evoke a sense of motion, as if the angel is in constant movement, offering support and guidance. Subtle patches of green and yellow introduce contrast, deepening the spiritual atmosphere and enhancing the complexity of the piece. This painting is particularly meaningful to the artist, as it reflects her personal journey and her belief in a higher, invisible realm. It was also submitted to an art competition centered on the theme of Angels, where it was selected as a semi-finalist, a testament to its emotional depth and spiritual resonance.
Through its use of color and form, Mougenot beautifully communicates the idea that we are connected to a higher, invisible world, where angels watch over us and provide unseen guidance during life's challenges.
Created with oil pastels on heavyweight professional acid-free paper, this artwork is sold unframed, giving you the freedom to frame it according to your personal taste and the style of your space. Pictures of the painting framed are provided for inspiration.
The artwork is signed on the front and back by the artist, and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, ensuring its provenance.
As a one-of-a-kind original piece, it will be carefully packaged for international shipping from France to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.
About the Artist:
Natalya Mougenot, born in Pavlodar, Kazakhstan, in 1981, is a contemporary French artist who has lived in Lyon, France, since 2003.

What began as a personal, therapeutic outlet has evolved into a deeper exploration of themes like women's empowerment, modern identity, and resilience. Known for her emotionally charged and bold works, Mougenot blends abstraction, nature, and florals to reflect the complexities of contemporary life. Her unique style, often influenced by art brut and naive art, invites viewers to connect with her transformative perspective on the world.

Presentation
Natalya is a contemporary french artist living in Lyon.
She was born and grew up in Kazakhstan, the country known for its spacious steppes.
She arrived in France 2003. Since that moment she loves her adoptive country.
She started painting in 2017 and used it as a therapeutic and emotional release during times of crisis. She incorporates this therapeutic approach in her artistic creative process till now.
In her artistic practice she refers to the terms of metamodernism, which proposes to look at the world from the position of the inner adult.
As an artist and as a woman she translates the experience of her personal search for balance based on harmony between mind, soul and body. This balance, in her opinion, is the pillar for the inner adult.
Important components of her work are authenticity, soulfulness, sincerity, emotionality and honesty. She immerses the objects and the characters in the world where there is no falsity, rudeness, loneliness and indifference.
She works rapidly and is constantly sensitive to the details.
Her artistic process is a fine balance between a pre-meditation and spontantainty which helps her to create her expressive atmospheric artworks with a modern touch of impressionism by cultivating a naive art approach.
