Elvira Kantimerova

I was born and raised in Ufa, capital of the rep. Bashkortostan, Russia, since I was 4 years old, I v started to study in a fine arts studio. Because of my parents saw that I was drawing every time and everywhere, and they simply have no chance to say me no.
Life gave me chances to try myself and work successfully in different professional ways – fashion, graphic and interior design, books illustration, teaching, exhibitions management and supervising.
In 2014 I v moved to Turkey, Antalya and since that time I v became full time artist. In 2015 I v open ElyaArtStudio and teaching academic drawing, painting and design. Me and my students are participants of international exhibitions, art-trips, plein air colloborations and culture events. I m proud of four of my students gone to colleges in Italy, St. Petersburg and Moscow. Now they study on fine arts, architecture, graphic design and fashion.
