Biography
Today my landscapes with rivers and lakes hang from collectors at famous fishing bases in Russia. Also, my paintings were published by the Russian poet Ekaterina Vavilova as illustrations for her book of poetry.
My passion is love for nature. My landscapes convey not only sunny and positive emotions. Sometimes it is sadness during a cloudy day, and sometimes it is a threat before a thunderstorm. But I love nature as it is - different, in different colors and moods, and indifferent weather. In any of its performances - it is perfect.
My followers (11k+ on Instagram) often write to me that looking at my landscape, they seemed to have visited my painting, in the place that I painted. And I understand them - I also just came from there :)
I am a fisherman, and therefore water and reflections are my main strong points! I do not go to nature without taking an easel and paints with me. I even met my husband on a fishing trip ten years ago))) So, it reinforced my passion for nature and landscape painting.
I started art school as a child. But for family reasons, I could not finish it then. This did not stop me from continuing to be creative, and my style in writing works is my own hand. People began to recognize me by my style of painting landscapes, by the image of water, reflections, and transmitted emotions. This is a great compliment for me.
I am a self-taught artist, but this year(2021) I am starting my exhibition art activity.
This year I will be a participant of the largest Russian exhibition Art Russia 2021.
And also I became a prize-winner of the competition «Dalis’ Mustache», International art contest, with my artwork Gold Autumn.
I became the owner of a gold diploma and was invited to a live competition in Spain in 2022, organized by Fiestalonia Milenio – European leader in organization of worldwide festivals and competitions for non-commercial creative collectives.
