"Lying Grace" — 70 × 100 cm (27.6 × 39.4 inches) — is a contemporary portrait of a resting woman by French artist Natalya Mougenot, created within her ongoing series devoted to women and inspired by the legacy of Henri Matisse. In this work, the body appears calm and open, lying in a moment of quiet presence, while the blue background, flowers, and square forms create a space that feels both poetic and alive.

Painted with intuition rather than realism, the work reflects Natalya Mougenot's search for authenticity, emotional honesty, and inner truth. As Natalya says, “painting is an act of authenticity and emotional honesty." Her figure is not presented as a literal portrait, but as an expressive presence — simplified, vibrant, and deeply human.

Color is central to her language. In “Lying Grace," the blue field brings a sense of depth and calm, while the floral and geometric elements add rhythm, contrast, and movement. This balance between softness and structure gives the painting its emotional tension and visual charm. Natalya often treats color as something alive, something that carries feeling rather than simply describing form.

A Matisse quote that resonates beautifully with this painting is: “Creativity takes courage." That spirit is present here in the way the work embraces simplicity, tenderness, and freedom at once. Like Matisse, Natalya allows color and line to speak directly, without over-explaining, letting emotion remain open and immediate.

Through her women, Natalya Mougenot explores contemporary femininity, sensitivity, and resilience. “Lying Grace" is part of that ongoing search — a quiet but powerful image of a woman who rests, yet remains fully present.

The painting holds together softness and strength, stillness and vitality, intimacy and openness. It is a work that invites the viewer to slow down, feel, and look more closely.

This painting is especially appealing to art lovers who are drawn to figurative work with emotional depth, strong color, and a contemporary feminine voice. It also suits interiors that value presence, warmth, and personality — including modern homes, design-led spaces, creative interiors, and private collections where a painting is meant to become a focal point rather than simply a decoration.

The 70 × 100 cm format makes framing simple and flexible, since ready-made frames are easy to find in this size. This gives the future collector the freedom to choose a frame that matches their own interior and taste, whether they prefer something minimal, elegant, or more decorative. In that sense, the frame becomes a continuation of the painting itself — not just a border, but part of the final visual rhythm.

This also makes the collecting experience more personal. When a buyer chooses the frame, they are not only presenting the work in their space, but also taking part in its final expression. That decision creates a real connection with the painting and makes them more engaged in the art process. The artwork then becomes something shared between artist and collector — something that lives not only on the wall, but within the atmosphere of the home.

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.
