Item Description

“Meatball”
By Azadeh Nikou
Fostered by Little Napoli

A garden of delights,  "Meatball" is not just a painted dog; it's a vibrant celebration of nature's abundant beauty. This exquisite sculpture transports you to a lush garden oasis, where every element harmonizes in a symphony of color and life.

As you gaze upon "Meatball," you'll find yourself immersed in a garden bursting with life. Delicate flowers in a riot of colors bloom with a vibrancy that's almost tangible. The garden is a testament to the artist's meticulous attention to detail, capturing the essence of nature's resilience and beauty.

Amidst the lush greenery, you'll discover ripe lemons and plump wine grapes, ready for harvest. These elements not only add a sense of abundance but also symbolize the fruits of patience and care, much like the process of creating art itself. The scene comes alive with the presence of beautiful birds in flight. Their graceful wings and vibrant plumage add a touch of enchantment to the garden, reminding us of the ever-present magic of the natural world.

About the Artist
Azadeh Nikou draws inspiration primarily from Mother Nature. Her childhood memories of her family's estate in Rayhan and the natural beauty of the Iranian countryside are a constant source of influence. Additionally, the breathtaking landscapes of the Hawaiian Islands and the mesmerizing Monterey Bay in California, set against the infinite blue hues of the Pacific Ocean, have left an indelible mark on her artistic expression.

Azadeh's artistic palette and paint application draw from diverse sources, including the Qajar Dynasty's Persian Miniature paintings, Monet's French Impressionistic works, and the landscape paintings of China's Song Dynasty. This rich tapestry of influences converges to shape her unique artistic vision.
