Biography
Hello! Welcome to my ArtFinder Shop!
My name is Evgeniya, I am a watercolor artist and illustrator. I was born in the Far East of Russia, where I graduated from art school and received a master's degree in cultural studies and art from the Far Eastern Federal University.
The house in which I grew up was on the ocean shore and from childhood I heard the cries of seagulls, the sound of waves and felt the salty air. My family and I often went on a boat to the open sea, so love for the sea settled in my soul forever and it became frequent plot of my paintings.
In 2008 I left Vladivostok, I traveled for 10 years without staying long in one place. At that time, I worked as a digital illustrator and started to paint in watercolors, selling my artworks. I lived in China, in the UK, traveled to many countries, I traveled all over Russia by train along the Trans-Siberian Railway, lived in the north of Russia in Petrozavodsk, lived in St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, and have been in Moscow since 2018.
Life in the north, polar nights and harsh climate inspired me to a series of works with the northern lights. Traveling along the Trans-Siberian Railway was reflected in my landscapes dedicated to village life and Russian nature. The pandemic and lockdown found me in Moscow. Like millions of other people, I sat at home and dreamed of traveling. So, a series of works with airplanes and airports was born.
I never cease to be amazed at the beauty and diversity of our world. Each place where I have been I save not only in the form of memories, but also in my paintings.
My artistic credo is the ability to see beauty in everything, notice rhythms and grace, and transfer it to paper. I paint because I want to tell everyone: "Look how beautiful the world around us is, how unique and diverse it is!"
I am an open and friendly person. I am happy to interact with customers and answer all questions. Please contact me if you need more information.
Thank you very much for taking the time to look at my artworks!
