Hi, I am Vlada and I am an artist from Ukraine. My grandfather instilled in me a love of drawing, he was a wonderful artist. I started drawing from childhood, already at school I participated in various competitions and won prizes, but then I dropped it. I returned to drawing in 2008 when I was going to a friend's birthday party and I had no money, I decided to give him his portrait drawn in pencil. Since this all started. For a long time I painted portraits exclusively with a pencil and then my grandfather, again he, convinced me to try to paint with watercolors, since then I have been drawing with paints. Faces are my great love. Drawing portraits, I immerse myself in a completely different world, I can draw for days on end. I always try to guess the emotion that a person had during the photo shoot and convey it in the drawing so that the portrait turns out to be as similar as possible to the photo.
My painting technique is the most realistic portrait possible. I love it when they look at my paintings and do not understand it is drawn or photo.
At the moment I am learning to paint with acrylic paints, there is more depth in acrylic, I want to achieve that my portraits are deeper and clearer.
