Still life with Rat :) Painting

Hello Dears :) My name is Iryna Tatur. When I was a little girl, I painted endlessly and was happy with it :) I painted not only on paper, but also painted walls, books, furniture and pillows :) I was a brave and confident Little Artist! Then I graduated with honors from an art college and university with a degree in painter and art teacher. But I lost interest in art suddenly. I betrayed My Dream - to be an Artist for many years. I worked as a teacher of drawing, painting and composition for over twenty years and did not paint at all. I returned to painting already in adulthood. I was afraid that I would live my whole life and would not fulfill My Dream of Childhood - to become a Great Artist. I burst into tears .... And I remembered when I was little girl, I loved to pick up the feather of a bird and dunk it in ink and draw on paper. It was real Magic for me :) So I started paint again. My Fantastic Artist was reborn! My Way of the Artist was a long, difficult and exciting adventure! My Main Teacher is Nature :) Every day I observed the sky, the sun and the moon, smiles of flowers and bends of trees, flights of birds and the charm of animals. I admired women's faces and made thousands of sketches. I painted and searched for myself, my own unique style, my own unique Soul. Each of my paintings is an Inspiration, Passion and flight of my Soul :) I see Beauty and Love in the simplest things :) My Creed is the Triumph of Life and Love! Goddesses, Sorceresses, Funny Cats, Magic Birds, Fairies live in my paintings :) And I want to share this Magic, Beauty and Love with you from all my Heart! I want my paintings to decorate houses and galleries. I want my paintings to give Smiles, Joy and Belief in the Best when someone is sad :) I thank every Fan of my art, and every Buyer. My Paintings are in private collections in Belarus, Russia, Germany, Israel, Argentina, USA. I took part in the exhibition "Love Line: Picasso, Matisse, Schiele " (Belarus, 2020), "Shunga. Japanese erotic engravings" (Belarus, 2021). "Toulouse Lautrec. Passions at the Moulin Rouge" (2021). "Tattoo in art. Art in tattoo" (Belarus, 2021). Love lives in my paintings:) Thank you :)
