Mila Alt

My passion for drawing began in childhood. Over the years, I attended art schools and continued to develop my artistic skills through independent practice and further study.
In 2008, I completed a course in oil painting. I have also explored pastel, a medium that allowed me to experiment with colour, texture, and expressive mark-making.
Today, I focus primarily on oil painting. Living in Paphos, Cyprus, I find inspiration in the Mediterranean landscape, the changing light, the sea, the sky, and the character of local architecture. I am drawn to the beauty of ordinary moments and the atmosphere of places, seeking to capture not only what I see, but also what I feel.
My artistic journey continues to evolve as I explore colour, light, texture, and a freer, more expressive approach to painting.
Through my work, I hope to share a sense of warmth, openness, and the quiet beauty of everyday life.
