I have always been inspired by nature, so my main inspiration comes from deep within through observing its scenes and events. My first training as an environmental engineer influences my work. I believe that art is the best form for observing our environment, interpreting a personal philosophy and expressing it through a visual message.
My paintings are bright, sunny and show how beautiful, unique and fragile our world is. I mostly use pure, saturated colours in my canvases, creating living energy on the canvas so that it is transmitted to the space and continues to live. In Moscow, we lack sunshine and warmth, so my artistic canvases give me the joy of life and an atmosphere of warmth and tranquillity.
I work in the technique of oil painting, graphics, batik, watercolour painting. I give preference to landscape and still life. The main motif of the graphical sheets - the scenes of daily life: flowers, sunlight, animals, emotions, feelings, thoughts, in general - everything that makes me happy. Each painting is one of a kind.
