Bay brown horse, equine watercolour painting Painting

Aleksandra Gorchakova was born in 1990 in Yaroslavl (Russia), relocated to Hungary in 2018. Botanical painting helps me to feel closer to nature in our man-made, mechanical century, this is meditation and escape from madness of the outside world. In botanical art I admire the beauty of the artistic image of the plant, incredibly fine work and details. I like to depict spectacular lush plants, full of life, with their expressive advantages and disadvantages. Since last year I have been working on my "Grow and draw" project, I grow plants at home and in the garden and create images of different stages of growth. I think that growing plant from small seed helps to understand the object better, because of everyday observation and witnessing all growing cycle.
