1. What inspired you to make this painting, Refraction- Original Parrot Tulip Painting?
I was inspired to create Refraction by my deep fascination with parrot tulips—flowers celebrated for their vivid colors, fluid petals, and sculptural beauty. I wanted to capture how light refracts through each fold of the tulip, creating a prism-like spectrum that mirrors the emotions within us. Through layers of hyperrealistic acrylic brushwork, this artwork explores the dialogue between light, color, and consciousness. Therefore, it transforms a fleeting bloom into a timeless meditation on beauty and impermanence.
This original botanical realism painting is ideal for collectors who seek large-scale fine art with emotional and visual depth. Each stroke of Refraction celebrates luxury floral décor, interior statement art, and the spiritual symbolism of rebirth through light

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 (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.
