Lonely Sailboat Print

I was born into an extremely creative family in Russia. Art constantly surrounded me (theatre, painting and Metal Art) and impacted my personality and lifestyle. When I was 19 years old, I emigrated from Russia to Israel. Art and aesthetics have always guided and influenced me, and as a result, I studied interior design. During my education I started to paint since I realized that art is an integral part of design. Over the years I have tried many techniques and I found that my favorite is oil/acrylic painting using molding paste to create bold texture. My latest collection that was created by this technique has expressed my feelings in the best way. I am very sensitive to my environment, to what is happening around me and in the world. I am concerned about humanitarian problems, especially those of children. However, the most important theme I have come to focus on in recent years is loneliness - humanity's biggest fear. This theme guides me in my artwork; gives me material for thought and, hence, is reflected in my painting. My workday starts in my beautiful studio where I usually get additional inspiration. The artists who influenced me are Eli Shamir and Boaz Noi (famous contemporary Israeli painters)
