Artworks by Olga Kurbanova

   I do not know how I could live without painting... It completely changed my life, filling it with color, beauty and wonderful emotions that I get when creating my work. I try to charge each of my pictures with positive energy and kindness, put a part of my soul and heart.
   I started to paint when I moved from Ukraine(Odessa) to America. And that changed my life forever.
   My favorite medium is oil, but sometimes I use acrylic. I paint different genres: nature, landscapes, still lifes, portraits, animals, but most of all I like to paint seascapes. Almost all my life I lived near the Black Sea and now I live close to Lake Erie. I love walking on the beach and enjoy the beauty and magnificence of water and clouds.
   All my work is done on high-class canvas and professional oil paints. Finished with varnish and have hangers. The sides are also painted as a continuation of the painting and have a finished look. I sell some paintings framed.
