In 2017-2021, more than 150 paintings and more than 250 graphic artworks were created. My mission: Follow the inspiration. To reveal the faithfulness and beauty of spiritual landmarks to a wide range of people. In my work, I explore the motives of the personal and collective subconscious. Research tools: inspiration, improvisation. Means of expression: color, rhythm, abstraction. Materials: oil/canvas, pastel/paper. ... Abstraction is multidimensional. - That's why I prefer this style of painting. Honest expression of inspiration gives depth, which everyone feels and sees in my painting in their own way. ... I use only professional light-resistant oil paints or oil pastels, which positive qualities are known for a long time. Linen canvas of high quality on light wooden stretcher & cotton paper for pastels. ... With love, ZheMi.
