My name is Natalia. I am an artist. I am from Russia, from the city Krasnoyarsk, in Siberia.
I am a member of the Professional Union of Artists of Russia.

What did I dream about since my childhood? These were paints, pencils, canvases, exhibitions! As long as I remember myself: a pencil and a brush are my constant companions. I graduated the evening department of art school № 2 in the Krasnoyarsk. Then I took private lessons from a great artist.

I spent my childhood and youth in Norilsk. After meager vegetation, a lack of sunlight most time in the winter, the harsh conditions of the polar city developed a special sensitivity to the beauty of nature.

My favorite material for painting is oil. It is plastic and changeable, like nature. Can be thin, light, and transparent. Or it can be fundamental and impressive.
My favorite style is landscapes. This is a play of light and shadow, the sun, a feeling of freedom, elation, a delight from the beauty of nature, from the structure of our world, our universe.

I paint a picture - peace, joy, and happiness come to the soul.
It is important for me to convey the mood of the picture. So that you can see not only shades of color, light, and shadow but also feel the cool morning, the warmth of the sun's rays, the freshness of the wind. So that you can feel what is difficult to convey in words.
I'm sure that a person's soul needs joy, love, and kindness. I have a great desire to share this with people through my paintings.

My artworks are found in many private collections around the world.
