Kurai steppe Painting

I was born and live in the cold Russian city of Novosibirsk. In winter, nature falls asleep, which makes it seem that the end of the world has come. Winter is cold and wicked. Therefore, you begin to appreciate summer, life, greenery. I put into my paintings all my love for life, for nature. Paints help to transform my feelings into beauty, Into a world of nature. I started drawing at the age of 11. I have been looking for my stories for a long time. It took me a while to find what makes my artist's heart beat faster. The key point in my work was a trip to the Altai mountains. Altai is a mountainous place in Russia on the border with Mongolia. It felt like the center of the Earth was there. The center of my life is here. The mountains turned out to be my inspiration to create art. After that I was able to see beauty in every flower around me. Mountains opened my eyes to beauty. I prefer oil paints. Because they are natural. Oil paints have natural colors and texture. It helps me to merge with nature. Through my paintings, I share with the world my feelings, my love for nature. The love that the mountains gave me.
