Lesnaya Painting

My name is Olesya and I come from a small town in Russia. I started painting when I was a little child and have been carrying it around my whole life. I have a basic education in arts and also learned how to paint in college, where I studied Interior Design. I always have so many images in my head that I want to implement. I embody them in watercolor, gouache, gems, embroidery… But my biggest passion is acrylic and canvas! There are no limits to my imagination and creativity: I draw what I see without following any rules or stereotypes. I like to capture the beauty of everyday life in my paintings and each of the pictures I draw has a story behind it. That’s why I’m deeply attached to every single one of my creations. I bring my visions to life by using bright colors as a reminder that only us ourselves decide what our life would be — colorful and vivid or faded and dull. Every painting is a piece of art for me that allows me to express a certain idea or experience. In my art, I like to share these unique experiences with other people.
