Bella oil on convas Ölfarbe Realismus Act Tschechien 2022

I was born in the northern city Arkhangelsk, currently live and work in Brno, Czechia. I graduated from Art School and then graduated from the Art and Pedagogical Lyceum in Arkhangelsk. As an adult, I completed an oil painting course in Brno. I also participated in the master classes of the Ukrainian painter Elena Ilychova and an American painter Trisha Adams.
In most of my paintings I use oil paints on streched canvas and paints in a realistic figurative style. I like trying different techniques from alla prima to layering and using glazes. I admire the beauty and grandiosity of nature all around us and I draw inspiration from it. In my paintings I would like to show the beauty of ordinary things around us, the beauty of the present moment. For me, painting is a meditation in which suffering and tiresome thoughts are lost.
I held some solo exhibitions in Czechia, and participated in the international competition in Luxemburg. My works are in private collections in Czechia.
