Night flower 1 * 30 x 30 cm * sculpture painting flowers from plaster * 2019 Painting by Evgenia Ermilova Painting

My name is Evgeniia Ermilova I was born in Russia, in Grozny city, but the war forced us to move to Ivanovo city, where I graduated from an Art College and a Textile Academy as an artist and fashion designer. Creativity has been in my blood all my life, I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. All my classes have always been associated with creativity, web design, making handmade interior items, and for the last 5 years, I have been working on a new technique, which I have developed myself and called a sculptural painting. Using decorative plaster, I create volumetric elements in the picture, most often flowers, birds, and animals. Sculptural painting originated from the bas-relief, also the impetus was the acquaintance with the works of the artist Justin Jeffrey, it was his early works that influenced my work, but over time, my sculptural painting evolved into an independent, incomparable technique. I draw inspiration from nature, I strive to convey its beauty not just on the plane, but in volume. My flowers are almost real, but their beauty will never fade. My dream is for a sculptural painting to become a part of art so that as many people as possible know about its existence. Now I teach my technique, I constantly travel with master classes around the world. Over the past 3 years, I have conducted master classes, presentations of artworks, and exhibitions in Russia, Estonia, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, India, Indonesia, Germany. I work a lot and my paintings are in private collections around the World. I am the founder of a brand of materials for drawing in the technique of sculptural painting Evgenia Ermilova™, whose products are exported to 29 countries, online schools where everyone can learn to draw voluminous flowers, an Instagram blogger with 190,000 subscribers
