ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My series of auto-legends ... Where did this idea come from? Look around, at the modern new cars now being produced .... They are all alike ... An average person who is not interested in cars will not even be able to name the brand immediately, let alone the model of the car in front of him! Now let's rewind time 10, 20, 30 or more years ago! Every car is a work of art! Each has its own face and its own figure! Not to mention the technical components! But time spares no one and these cars are getting smaller and smaller ... They are rotting away from their last owners, or they are being restored and stored in auto schools and garages by meticulous car enthusiasts who want to preserve their former beauty ... So I wanted to save these beauties for the history ! Capture on canvas for posterity of motorists!

Svetlana has two distinct passions in life – painting and cars! For many years, she has worn two hats: holding a a degree in graphic design, she has worked as a designer in an corporate environment simultaneously organizing races on the racetrack of St. Petersburg, which led her to travel with the racing team throughout Russia and Europe. During this time, she obtained a certificate in airbrushing, thereby linking her creative and automotive interests. This is how her unique direction in painting has formed. Combining the love for art and cars, she began to focus on the intricate beauty of technology. She saw beauty and sophistication in all sorts of technically complex devices – car engines, cogwheels and other parts, where others only see a perfectly functional mechanism. Now she tries to share her vision with the world and show everyone how beautiful those car mechanisms are... Every artist at least once in his life painted a portrait, and it is through portraiture that one can capture the essence of a person. Svetlana also paints portraits, as each complex mechanism is a portrait of the master who created it, a hidden portrait that is not accessible to everyone... We use cars and other technical devices every day, without even wondering how they work and even more so what they look like. Svetlana has a unique opportunity to know how they look from the inside, thanks to her husband, who brings them back to life after a breakdown. She is a technical portraitist! Today, Svetlana's works are in private collections in Russia, the CIS countries, Finland, Israel, Spain and the USA.
