About Anastasiya Mouchan

Hello Artfinder team! My name is Anastasia Mouchan, I am a watercolor artist, portrait painter now living at Antalya Turkey. And If you asked who is Anastasia Mouchan, the most likely answer would be “A watercolorist who paints her daughter.” After all, I became recognizable thanks to the portraits of the blonde "watercolor princess". The source of my inspiration is childhood, a wonderful and magical feeling of the world. I was born in Belarus and I changed my life after 10 years of working as a graphic designer. With the birth of my daughter, my passion for watercolors began to grow. "These watercolors are "full of light", gentle and poetic," I receive such feedback from my subscribers, exhibitions visitors and buyers of my watercolors. Last year my watercolors appeared on the covers of watercolor magazines (Pratique des Arts / special aquarelle N27 and International Watercolor magazine N13), I was invited as a special guest at watercolor festivals around the world, I became a member of IMWA International Masters of Watercolour Alliance. Nearest time I’m going to take part as special invited guest at the watercolour festivals in France, Spain and Turkey, to run workshop at Switzerland. I have developed my own style and my own watercolor technique. What I'm proud of is that I can inspire other artists. My daughter is my muse. She is growing, and at the same time I am growing as an artist. By portraying her, I'm not acting literally. What I'm doing is not just copying a photo, but also using my daughter's image to reflect my feelings and experiences. But I am attentive to the people around me. And I'm always glad to draw the person who touched me. My clients are all over the world, and I am happy to draw also on request. Thank you for your time and interest :-)
