Crane Dance Painting

Painting is the most exciting part of my life, I need it like air. Now it is. When I draw, it is so addictive that I forget about the time and what is happening. I often see everything that surrounds me as a picture, I think - can this make a picture - nature, people around, some scenes from life, an interesting photo, a concert - any new impression. When a picture is born, it's like magic-you want to look at it and look at it - it's like a new reality. This wasn't always the case. At the age of 16, I finished art school and gave up painting. As the years passed, I only sometimes remembered my passion with sadness. One day, many years later, my husband gave me an easel, oil paints, and brushes for my birthday and said - you must draw, you have no more excuses. I realized that I had completely lost the skill to paint, I never painted in oil. In order not to offend her husband, I started watching video tutorials on painting. And try to write. I began to succeed, and painting absorbed me. My paintings were immediately bought. My second visit to painting has been going on for 10 years. I study a lot and constantly, I take lessons from masters at the Shikhanov Brothers school of painting. This year I participated in an art exhibition for the first time. I have always been inspired by the Impressionists in painting. I like their courage, innovation and optimism. Painting is not my main activity, I work in education as a Vice-rector for Pastukhov academy. I graduated from Yaroslavl state University with a degree in applied mathematics. I write in genres-portrait, landscape, still life, using mainly the technique of oil painting.
