Sunset on Lake Baikal. Painting

Welcome! My name is Natalia. I am an artist. I am from Russia, from the city Krasnoyarsk, in Siberia. I am a member of the Professional Union of Artists of Russia. On my site, you can see my artworks and buy paintings. What did I dream about since my childhood? These were paints, pencils, canvases, exhibitions! As long as I remember myself: a pencil and a brush are my constant companions. I graduated the evening department of children's art school № 2 in the Krasnoyarsk in 2005. Then I took private lessons from a great artist. I spent my childhood and youth in Norilsk. After meager vegetation, a lack of sunlight most time in the winter, the harsh conditions of the polar city developed a special sensitivity to the beauty of nature. My favorite style is landscapes. This is a play of light and shadow, the sun, a feeling of freedom, elation, a delight from the beauty of nature, from the structure of our world, our universe. My favorite material for painting is oil. It is plastic and changeable, like nature. Can be thin, light, and transparent. Or it can be fundamental and impressive. I paint a picture - peace, joy, and happiness come to the soul. It is important for me to convey the mood of the picture. So that you can see not only shades of color, light, and shadow but also feel the cool morning, the warmth of the sun's rays, the freshness of the wind. So that you can feel what is difficult to convey in words. I'm sure that a person's soul needs joy, love, and kindness. I have a great desire to share this with people through my paintings. My paintings are in some private collections. Best greetings from Siberia, Natalia Fedotovskikh.
