About the Item

Anita Zotkina’s “Arctic Nocturne” is an 8 x 10 x 0.7 inch oil on canvas painted in 2025. This surreal, dreamlike work features a polar bear sitting on drifting ice beneath a star-filled sky, playing a flute to the night. Rendered in deep blue, turquoise, green, and white, the painting highlights luminous textures and soft layered brushstrokes that create a glowing, atmospheric scene. This original artwork is unframed with painted edges for a finished look, and it is signed on both the front and back. The mood of the painting is quiet and reflective, offering a subtle sense of calm to its surroundings. Anita Zotkina is a painter whose work explores themes of innocence, memory, and the quiet wonder of nature. Working primarily in oil on canvas, she has developed a distinctive style she calls Softique, characterized by soft lines, floating forms, and surreal yet tender atmospheres. Her paintings often depict animals and women in dreamlike environments, reflecting on childhood discoveries and life’s journeys with both their joyful and contemplative sides. Color is central to her practice, where luminous contrasts and layered blends create a sense of depth and emotional resonance. Through these intimate narratives, Zotkina seeks to capture fleeting moments of wonder and connection, offering viewers a pause from the pace of modern life. Zotkina is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.
