I am an contemporary artist from Saint-Pererburg, Russia. I was born and live in St. Petersburg, Russia. St. Petersburg is also called the cultural capital of Russia. This city is known for its magnificent architecture, which has inspired many artists. In my youth, I often took part in creative, artistic projects. My higher education and work activities were far from art. In 2014, I graduated from Saint Petersburg Mining University and my career has been in construction finance. Having lost interest, I decided to leave the activity. I have always been attracted by art, painting. Passion for yoga and painting helped me a lot to understand myself, my feelings and desires. First, as a hobby, I completed digital drawing training at NewArtSchool in 2018 in St. Petersburg, Russia. I also made sketches with a pencil, but I did not work with color, because I did not understand it and was very afraid. In 2019, I was so impressed with the work process of an airbrush artist that after a while I started studying airbrushing at airbrushcenter, St. Petersburg, Russia. Airbrushing allows you to create incredibly realistic paintings. In airbrushcenter, I wrote my final qualifying work "Lighthouse", which is also featured among my works at Saatchiart. During the training, I overcame my fear of multi-colored paints and now with great pleasure I embody my thoughts and feelings in various colors and images. And the most important thing is that the process of painting is very similar to meditation: incredible concentration, a sense of flight, filling with energy. I really enjoy experimenting with different techniques and materials.
