Others for Vera... Maturity and completion as an artist are striking in Vera Peneva's work. The poetic beginning can be found in her entire creativity. When in touch with her paintings and collages we ourselves are becoming part of her world and common outlook, which charges us, gives us freedom and tranquillity. Katya Tineva, art critic In Vera Peneva's paintings the colours are vivid daydreams which illuminate the space, they make it fabulous as in a child's dream and bring the naive happines of life. Plamena Dimitrova-Racheva, art critic Vivid, colorful, bright... Vera Peneva’s works bring feelings and experiences, as if from another world - much better, always good, in which everyone and everything has their unique place and at the same time overflows and merges with everything around, creating something much larger and more significant than the sum of its individual parts. At the same time, among the images and within them are incorporated threads and ropes, as life itself - the path that takes you from one placeg and without nociticing, leading you to a completely different one, and at the very end to realize that impereceptibly you have become different - much, mich better!
