Aries Painting

My name is Katya Ivleva, born in 1989. Since early childhood, I was accompanied by fine art. After graduating from art school, and preferring a fashionable profession in the field of design, in 2006 I went to study at the Ural State Academy of Architecture and Art in Yekaterinburg. I followed the path of a designer for many years and at the same time taught academic disciplines at an art school – drawing and painting. And it was while working at school that I felt my true vocation – to be an artist. There I was immersed in the methodological issues of fine art, every day I was faced with new information about painting, artists, works. And all this prompted me to take up a brush and create my own paintings. Now my works are in private collections in Russia and other countries. I participate in exhibitions and competitions. The main place in my work is occupied by figurative and portrait painting, I like to depict objects and people around me. There is also my third favorite topic — this is the image of animals, which I often endow with human features. I paint my works with oil paints. And I draw inspiration from my environment, create photos and spend hours searching for information that is interesting to me on the Internet, combine visual material and create author's compositions.
