Acrylic painting "Tomatoes" Painting

Hi! My name is Viktoriia. I am a journalist from Moscow, Russia. I work on social and political topics so I meet lot of people’s stories. Some of them are full of pain and injustice. That’s why I did carried through the years my child’s hobby that I want to share with people. Art helps me not only to unload my brain but also to capture social phenomenons that are sometimes hard to describe with words such as: political games, poverty, gender and national discrimination, totalitarian government. Journalists in Russia are now harassed by administration. So art helps me to move on doing my job and not to give up. I adore working with acrylics. From my childhood I have been searching for my own style so now it is something between abstract and pop art. Some of my pieces are being painted just for relax but finally got deep significance. So among my works You can see portraits of different people with heartbreaking emotions in their eyes that are really mine, fun works, symbolic works. But in every of them there is something I felt in the moment I painted.
