Yana Medow’s Heat Index XXL is an original oil painting on unstretched canvas, 120 cm high by 90 cm wide, signed on the back, created in 2026 in a contemporary style, depicting a glamorous summer scene in cream, pink, blue and multicolour tones.
Description from the seller
Heat Index is an expressive contemporary oil painting that captures the intensity of a summer afternoon through bold figurative forms, warm color harmonies, and playful storytelling. A confident woman reclines in a striped beach chair, cocktail in hand, radiating glamour, relaxation, and a touch of attitude. Surrounded by swirling shades of pink, coral, cream, and sunlit gold, the composition evokes the sensation of shimmering heat, beachside leisure, and endless vacation days.
Painted in a distinctive modern figurative style, this artwork celebrates femininity, self-confidence, and the art of slowing down. Exaggerated proportions, luminous skin tones, and expressive facial features create a memorable character whose presence is both humorous and captivating. The painting blends contemporary fashion aesthetics with a dreamlike summer atmosphere, making it an eye-catching statement piece for modern interiors.
Perfect for collectors of contemporary figurative art, colorful oil paintings, feminine artwork, beach-inspired decor, and bold modern portraits.
