Color Works

A painting by an iconographer with a contemporary twist

The Project
These works are chromatic interpretations based on the original drawings by Emil Marinov Tzeinski.

The project stems from a desire to explore new expressive possibilities through color, while preserving the symbolic power and compositional structure of the original works.

Original drawings: Emil Marinov Tzeinski

Creative concept and color development:
Tatiana Kraevskaya & Emil Tzeinski –
Studio ET TVB “Sole.”
Selected Works
  • Butterfly Effect
    Butterfly Effect — a flutter of wings breaks the silence and creates the universe.
  • The Path to the Light
    The path to truth passes through the silence of the universe
  • In the silence of the womb
    A tactile form that explores the idea of refuge and origin. Soft lines and a compact volume create the sensation of a silent dialogue with the inner world.
  • St. Nicholas
    A figure that embodies both rigor and miracle. The geometry of the cross meets the saint’s protection: order, faith, and hope encapsulated in a simple symbol.

Technical Aspects, Vision, and Project Development
These chromatic interpretations are conceived as art editions available in various formats: artist postcards, posters, exhibition prints, and small collectible series.

Each work maintains a connection to the original drawing while also opening up to new forms of artistic presentation and dissemination.

This work blends the classical figure of the Archangel Gabriel with a modern graphic aesthetic. At the center, the Archangel is depicted with his staff and scroll. Surrounding him are intricate ornamental structures, celestial spheres, and streams of light and energy that evoke the harmony and order of the cosmos.

The color version enhances the composition’s layering through a deep and luminous palette. The color reinforces the drawing’s meditative and contemplative impact, highlighting every single detail of the linear interweaving.
Ideal for:
• Fine-art prints on paper, canvas, or metal to decorate spaces
• Illustrations for books, publishing, websites, and presentations
• Printed materials: posters, postcards, calendars, covers
• Digital backgrounds, social media graphics, and web content
• An artistic and spiritual gift with a contemporary aesthetic

Archangel Gabriel.
Color version. Digital file for printing and creative use
“O Holy Archangel Gabriel, messenger of divine light, herald of God’s will, enlighten our hearts. Guide us in the truth and make us faithful to the word of the Lord. Amen”
Two white wings meet at the center of the cosmos.
The cross is not wood; it is the universe—fragments of time,
stars, and the sea held together by light.
At its heart, love takes shape.
God becomes an embrace.

The Heart of the Cross
The cosmos, love, and God in a single symbol.
Two doves at the center of a cross representing the universe.
At the center, the Heart is not a wound; it is a spring.
From It, the universe pulses—galaxies, planets,
waves of light and matter that are born and breathe.

Sacred Heart
Love as the center of the cosmos.
Where the Heart of God becomes the heart of the world.
Christmas
Each work in the “Christmas” series is a meditation on the mystery of light entering the world. Color becomes a symbolic language, accompanying the graphic form in a quest for harmony, silence, and contemplation.
