About this artwork
This painting, much like the other paintings in this series, is inspired by increasing numbers of fires that we see more and more. These fires are getting out of hand, swallowing everything before them, destroying nature, killing animals, and people.
One can't help to see the connection between fires and global warming; the damage we as a species are inflicting upon nature.
It makes me sad and angry that our species is causing all these atrocities,… and not enough people seem to care.
The Utopian landscape was inspired directly by Amazon fires. I was fascinated by seeing images of glorious forests thinned out by the flames.
I want to show nature in all its glory, but also the effect of the devastation we are causing.

« Most of my inspiration, or what drives me, comes from the work itself. »
Ana Markovic is an award-winning painter from Serbia who has exhibited nationally and internationally.
In recent years, her work has revolved around nature, whether it's landscapes on fire, regular landscapes, or botanical ones. Ana believes that nature should be in focus because it heals us, has the power of revival, and brings much-needed serenity to our busy lives. Also, with global warming's growing presence, nature becomes a burning topic (pun intended) to shed light on all the beauty we are in danger of losing. That is why nature, in all its glory, is the main actor in all the stories here.
She works in various media, from watercolor to oils. However, her newest pieces feature mixed media on canvas with oil paint in the lead role. While the initial layers present fine play between acrylic paint and charcoal drawing, oil comes later to tie it all together, giving it transparency and depth.
