Monochromatic still life collection: cobalt blue grapes Print

Born and raised in Moscow, I live between Italy and Russia since 2005. Currently, I am based in Florence. I started drawing before speaking and from that moment on I never stopped doing it. As a child, I went to art school, where I learned the basics. But then I decided that being an artist is not a serious job and I enrolled in the accessories design faculty at Moscow State University Of Design And Technology. After 5 years of studies, I decided that it would not be bad to improve my knowledge in the international fashion sector and I came to Italy. Three more years and I became a Fashion Accessories Designer. Later, for several years I worked in Italian fashion houses, such as Versace Versus, Nannini, Roberto Cavalli, and finally, Salvatore Ferragamo. It was a challenging experience, but just as unforgettable. I learned to work with shapes, different materials, and, above all, with colors. All this time I have never stopped drawing and painting, in search of my place in art. So one day I decided to devote all my time to this. Since then, I spend every moment with my creations, working hard and improving day by day. My particular passion is the study of color also from a psychological point of view. I realized that when we connect with color, we connect with our feelings and in doing so we begin to connect with our true identity. Color is perceived through the eyes, but it speaks to our hearts. This is why in my paintings the color has more importance than the painted subject. I'm all about color! I observe how colors make us feel and think, and how we can use them for the benefit of our well-being. If you are ready to use the power of color, come with me!
