Julia Khoroshikh

My works are inspired by music, fantasy and nature. I love to depict mythological creatures because they are not only personages of old stories for me, they are symbols of human souls and that's why they are eternal. I am also a huge fan of life drawing, it's a ground for my fantasy and decorative works. And I love to make patterns, it’s a kind of meditation for me.

I work with traditional media mostly, soft pastels, acrylic painting and wool painting are my favourite techniques
