World-famous artist Nigar Narimanbayova expressed her gratitude to the head of the Arts Council Azerbaijan Dadash Mammadov for intimation to take part in the workshop. 

"Now I am creating a series of female portraits - phantasmagoric, magical, magical images. I always say that a woman is the crown of nature, she is mysterious and magical. One of these beautiful female images is reflected in my painting entitled "The Lady in Blue". This fabulous beauty makes it possible to see the world  through the blue color. I love blue very much, now I have a whole series of paintings in these colors. Blue is the color of the night, mystery, dreams, the starry sky, the universe. The Lady in Blue is depicted against the backdrop of the universe. An owl sits on her shoulder - a bird symbolizing the wisdom of female nature. There are angels playing trumpets next to her. She stretches out her hands to everything beautiful, kind and bright ... ", said Narimanbayova. 

National artist Leyla Orujeva noted a unique atmosphere in the Art Tower Gallery. 

"Talented and interesting artists gather at the Art Tower Gallery. Here we discuss and work on a chosen topic. This process helps to reveal the artist's inner potential. Suddenly you want to express something on canvas that you did not expect. Last time it was associated with temptation and inspiration. What inspires me? For several days I thought about it. There are so many things around and I realized that it is my dreams that tempt and inspire me to move forward," said Orujeva.

The artist stressed that her daughter Aliyah also inspires her to create masterpieces. Her painting depicts a girl who releases tits from a cage and follows a crane, soaring at dawn over beloved the city of Baku.
