OIL Painting | Digital Portraits | Fairy Tales
Welcome
Creativity begins where boundaries end. This space is not about one direction, but about many voices of the same search. A journey, where portraits become depth, oil turns into living abstraction, words into exciting stories.
Oil Painting
Through the technique of impressionism I am trying to achieve a new perception of animals not as objects of consumption, but as part of living nature with which we have long lost contact. A new perception may help establish this connection and take us back to the beginning, where animals were something beautiful and unattainable.
Digital Portraits
I love to create portraits filled with vibrant colors. I believe that bright colors that fill our lives, serve as an additional source of energy and joy. Sometimes by adding animals I emphasize the connection with nature, and, accordingly, with yourself. I would like while, looking at the portrait, the viewer could feel the depth and reflection that is sometimes lacking in daily life.
Fairy Tales
When I was sixteen I wrote on a rainy weekend in our summer house nine short fairy tales. More than ten years later I draw the illustrations and published my first fairy tale book. All nine stories show us in different ways that friendship, compassion, courage and trust can be stronger than the cleverest cunning or the most powerful spell. The book is for now only in german available.
About Me
I am a Russian artist based in Munich.
Already as a young girl I discovered my passion for painting and attended an art school in Moscow in addition to the gymnasium. In 2018 I successfully completed my “Master of Arts” at the „Academy of Fine Arts in Munich“ and after one year of working as an Architect I work today as a fulltime artist. In May 2020 I was published in the book „Leaders in Contemporary Art“ by the Australian publisher „Capsules“ besides 200 other international artists.
In addition to my oil paintings and digital portraits, I also write fairy tale books, for which I also create the illustrations. In October 2020 I published my first book „Fantastische Märchenwelt“ with nine individual fairy tales. More fairy tale books will follow.
