Natalya Zhdanova lives and works in Saint Petersburg. She is a member of the Professional Union of Painters and of the International Fund of Arts. A resident of the International magazine "Russian Gallery XXI century". Natalya uses various styles and genres — landscape, still life, fantasy, surrealism, abstraction— making experiments with various materials and techniques. She regularly participates in exhibitions. Natalya creates her paintings unconsciously and instinctively. The painter is more than happy to devote all her life to art and, being driven by inspiration, she brings to canvas her extraordinary inner power. Natalya Zhdanova turns her life impressions, emotions, and feelings into artistic images, thus creating a world of her own, filled with beauty and harmony, in which everyone who enters it, absorbing into that unique world, always leaves a part of her own heart. The painter easily and vividly discloses the idea of her work, making every spectator feel something own, personal, materialized by some unusual means. Artist Statement: Our world is extraordinarily multidimensional and mysterious. Trees, flowers, stones, any objects have more than just symbolic meaning. Each has a soul and its own history. I want to show the beauty of objects that are unprepossessing at first glance. I hope to tell unusual stories from the life of ordinary objects of the world around us.
