Valentina Shatokhina is a Russian artist who loves experimenting with pictorial art. Looking at the artist's paintings, you may immediately see that art is a passion. Her paintings on various topics have one thing in common - emotions. Valentina graduated from the Institute of Arts and Culture with a design and arts degree in Russia. In 2018, she deliberately suspends her work in the field of graphic design to express her ideas through painting. The creative skills and knowledge that she has acquired from her past experience are an integral part of her aesthetic process, which implies stylization and realism. Valentina seizes this magical moment inspired by music and feelings to capture it in her paintings. She uses various materials such as oil and acrylic paint, mixing them in an unusual way. The concept of her work consists of color spots that convey her mood and emotions, which play an important role in the expression of the author's ideas and inner vision.
