Tea with cookies watercolor still life Painting

I am an artist interested in drawing from nature in an attempt to reflect life I was born in 2000 in Kaluga, Russia. From the age of 14 I studied at an art studio in the Moscow region. In 2018 I entered the Stroganov Moscow State Academy of Arts and Industry, Faculty of Graphics. Now I'm 4th year student of Academy. I often draw from nature, because I like to capture moments from life in my works. I do my works in a realistic style. I find the works of the old classical school very strong and expressive. Academism for me is not a routine, but rather an interesting investigation in an attempt to understand nature. I do oil paintings, watercolors and tempera, but I like to try different techniques. My last works are related to book and zine illustration.
