Irina Taneva Iri IR
“I’ve been reflecting recently on the incredible women who shape our lives—starting with ourselves, our sisters, our friends, colleagues, and, of course, our wonderful mothers.
To honor these cherished connections, I have selected six of my most heartfelt paintings to create a very limited Spring Collection. These pieces celebrate the strength, beauty, and inspiration that women bring into our world.
If you treasure unique art, any of these original paintings could be the perfect gift for a woman you love, admire, or want to celebrate. And for the first time, I’m also offering these works as high-quality Giclée prints, created with the same cutting-edge technology used by prestigious museums like the V&A and The National Gallery. These archival prints, made with inks that last over 100 years, bring timeless beauty to your home at an accessible price.
I’ve poured months of passion into these paintings, and I hope they bring you as much inspiration as they have brought me.
Each original painting is beautifully framed in a light wood frame (A3 size) and can be elegantly packaged for gifting. Perfect for modern interiors, these artworks bring colour, freedom, and inspiration to any modern home. The Prints are not framed.”

Four tulips, like four souls moving through life together, sway gracefully in the breeze. Each petal glows in its own hue—soft pinks blending with deep blues and purples—symbolizing individuality and unity. A celebration of friendship, family, and the freedom to shine.
