1. What inspired you to make this painting, Black Beauties of Heaven-Original Carnation Floral Painting?
Black Beauties of Heaven was born from my fascination with contrast — the dialogue between shadow and light, strength and surrender. The ruffled petals of the black carnation unfold like waves of silk and smoke, revealing quiet luminosity within darkness.
The monochrome palette magnifies texture, emotion, and silence, allowing each fold to echo the rhythm of resilience.
It speaks of refinement that needs no color — elegance distilled to essence.

2. What makes your paintings unique?
I create 100% original artwork, hand-painted in hyperrealism using multiple layered strokes and mixed techniques (acrylics, pens, pencils). The painting is adorned with a encompassing colored palette. I never use reproductions or digital shortcuts — hence, every stroke is authentic.
3. Why are your artworks premium priced?
I make large scale paintings on large-scale canvases approximately (36×48 inches and beyond) with intricate detail, symbolic storytelling, and archival pigments. Hence, these are investment-grade fine art, not décor.
4. How do I know it’s professional?
I create all my artworks under Sumana Burman Fine Art , a registered fine art brand with a professional website, brand identity, and transparent compliance policies. As a result, each piece comes with: A signed Certificate of Authenticity Museum-grade packaging & worldwide DHL Express shipping Official documentation and provenance registry under my brand
5. Will it hold value?
Yes. My works are one-of-a-kind and never reproduced. As my portfolio expands and my international collector base grows, early acquisitions naturally appreciate in both emotional and financial value.
