Smile of the cheshire cat Painting

I was born and live in Russia, in the green city of Stavropol. I've been close to nature since childhood. In my parents' garden and on country picnics, I watched with delight the cycle of seeds, the weaving of climbing plants, as a snail stretches out of its shell and looks with its antennae. I petted all the dogs and cats, made dolls out of flowers. And she painted. The music teacher advised my parents to send me to draw, and I colored all his music books. Then I painted the school ones and painted them up — my parents sent me to art school. I didn't like it there. These are the rules, the grades, the failures. But I finished it and continued to learn how to draw further. While studying at the Faculty of Arts, I was inspired by how nature recovers the territory that man has mastered: skeletons of houses overgrown with ivy, fences covered with moss. Perhaps I found it beautiful because of a similar inner feeling of abandonment. It wasn't easy for me in a family of dependent parents. Then I got married, I rarely painted, and my musician husband's music appeared in my life. Art has never left me. After the divorce, life led me into spirituality and psychology. I started drawing abstractions to express the states that were rushing out. At first, the pictures were gloomy. It was art therapy, ventilation of the inner dark corners of the soul. I plunged deeper and deeper into the study of my inner world, the world of other people, searching for my answers, my truth. My heart felt lighter. The drawings also began to change. And a little later they turned into worlds filled with images, color flashes, freshness and spontaneity. Each painting is like a portal to one of the countless dimensions where you can observe and feel for an infinitely long time. Diving into these dimensions, one remembers the childhood feeling of a game where the rules are being created right now, and at the same time some subtle logic of images is revealed.Logic is unusual and non-linear, far from the order of everyday life, but containing a different order, unusually harmonious and free. Abstract images resemble plants, dancing birds, animals, grids of streams during a rainstorm, sweets, body organs, signs and symbols, urban landscapes, and the actions of the elements. And whatever the variety, my work is about how everything in the world is connected, intertwined, and there is nothing separate, although sometimes it seems different to us.
