Urban mermaid Painting

My name is Natalia Kludt, and I am a professional artist with a comprehensive educational background: five years at an art school, two years studying painting and drawing, and five years at an art university, where I delved into both academic art and explored color graphics and stylization. I am also formally trained as a fashion designer, and I enjoy incorporating style not just in clothing, but also into interiors and art as a whole. There was a time when I took a break from painting to focus on fashion, embroidery, decorating, as well as painting on bags and shoes. However, my interest in painting was reignited by the development of artificial intelligence. I felt a strong desire to prove that true art is unique and cannot be replaced by machines. I prefer working with oils and acrylics because these materials allow me the flexibility to change my ideas as I work. I love combining realism with elements of surrealism, creating paintings that provoke thought and immerse viewers into a world of fantasy and symbolism. I live in Germany, but I am passionate about traveling and draw inspiration from the history and culture of various peoples. My paintings are not just images; they are gateways into other worlds where reality blends with dreams. As an artist, my aim is to create works that are not only visually appealing but also emotionally rich, inspiring deep feelings in viewers.
