House with the ghosts Print

I’m Irina Bobrova. I was born in Odessa, Ukraine. I live and work in Odessa now. I began painting in 2015, first at a master class. I realized my view requires a good school and started taking lessons from professional artists: Elena Ilyicheva, Maria Guryanova, and Nikolai Potuzhny. I continue to study. I work in the techniques of oil painting, watercolor, ink, and pen graphics. I like experimenting with different techniques and styles to create decorative pictures. My first personal exhibition "Bright World" took place in the “Muse” gallery, Odessa in June 2020. “The Magic of Colors”, my second exhibition, which was placed at the AURUM Art Center in the spring of 2021 summarized the results of my work of 2019-2020. The next one "Reflex" presented my works in the "Gardens of Victory" Gallery in December of 2022. I participated in the Second International Triennial ART-NOVA "Mandrivna Philosophy" in December of 2022; in the Regional Exhibition of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine “To the Day of Mother, Memory and Reconciliation”, Odessa in May of 2023; and in the regional exhibition “On the Independence Day of Ukraine”, on the National Union of Artists of Ukraine, Odessa in August 2023. In 2023, two of my works were presented at Regional Exhibitions of the Union of Artists of Ukraine, one work at the International online exhibition “ART-NOVA” (available in catalogs), and also two works were presented at the Ukrainian Center of the Culture and Arts at the exhibition “Na viytylach mrii” (“On the sails of Dreams”).
