Natasha Besson

I am russian, painting and drawing in Phuket, Thailand.

I was born in the Far North, Chukotka, from where you can look at the channel and see Alaska in fair weather. Despite this, I spent all my childhood on the picturesque warm seacoast of the Black Sea. I studied Design and Arts in a beautiful historical city, St' Petersburg. Travelling around all my life, I finally found myself in the tropics of the Andaman Sea with its incredible saturated colours and delightful landscapes. All my paintings are inspired by the unique nature of the South-East Asia with its quiet everyday life, illumined with eternal sunlight and deep bright colours.
