WELCOME
Art has been the primary thread of my life since my childhood in Russia. I began art training in middle school and, eventually, after earning my master's degree in Fine Arts, moved to the US in 2007. While I initially specialized in classical Old Masters techniques, over the years I have become highly fluid and well-versed in many media, including oil on canvas, watercolor, and acrylic.
I believe Art is a powerful medium for shifting states of consciousness, and I approach it as a way to heal and uplift both the artist and the audience. I strive to produce art from a place of mindful awareness and deep appreciation for beauty and grace.
My personal spiritual practices, including yoga, meditation, and mindfulness, have deeply influenced my art over the last 15 years in the US. I find inspiration primarily in nature and animals, as well as in various religious and spiritual traditions around the world.
