Morgenstimmung - Painting by Liliya Nikolova
Liliya Nikolova
In Nikolova´s work “Morning Mood,” the artist explores the subtle transitions between sky and earth: The narrow, floating space where light meets landscape. She works with soft, pastel color tones that range from warm rose hues through sandy and beige nuances to delicate blue accents. From this palette emerges a calm, almost dreamlike atmosphere that captures the stillness of early morning.
The pastel color application is an essential element of her artistic expression. With visible brushstrokes, Nikolova layers the paint onto the canvas, allowing structures to form and dissolve again. The interplay of dense and translucent layers of color creates depth between movement and stillness.

Rather than depicting a concrete landscape, the artist understands this image as a sensation: The breath of a horizon opening in the morning light, creating space for silence and new beginnings.
Liliya Nikolova is a painter with extensive training in Bulgaria and Germany. Her work embodies a deeply intuitive approach, embracing the female gaze to explore themes of authenticity and inner truth. Prioritizing intuition over structured planning, Nikolova’s paintings emerge freely from a powerful fusion of emotion and spontaneous composition. Her creations capture the spirit of independence and tranquility, offering viewers a glimpse into an inner world marked by sincerity and the intensity of the present moment. Through her authentic style, Nikolova’s works resonate with a profound sense of inner contentment, inviting reflection on the beauty of stillness and self-discovery. She exhibited internationally and is still active today.
