Marina Sosnovskaya

A realistic oil painter living and working in Switzerland, with an enduring love for painting and photographing the natural world in all its forms. The Swiss landscape is a constant source of inspiration, though my appreciation for nature's beauty knows no borders.

My creative process is a personal one. I take my own photographs — sometimes alone, sometimes with my husband — because I want to capture my own experience: to paint what inspires me, what I have witnessed and sensed for myself. I am drawn to the quiet presence of wild animals, each with its own character, to the delicate form of flowers, and to the vast, silent beauty of landscapes. I love light, and nature in all its majestic beauty. These captured moments are more than references; they are remembered feelings.

I hope that those who spend time with my work find a sense of tranquility, peacefulness and calm — a quiet beauty that lifts the day, and perhaps brings a smile.
