Rigoletto Painting

Kristina was born in a small town in the North Caucasus and started drawing at an early age. She expresses her love for mountains and nature in her poetic landscapes, trying to convey the thrill of the soul that the places she sees for the first time evoke . According to the artist, each landscape motif is a specific piece of music , with its own special melody and intonation . Series of pastels created in 2016-2019. become the first steps in she gives away finding her own style. The vertical stroke that fills the entire space of the works creates a thrill and vibration that serves as a way to convey the state and feelings, but at the same time creates a decorative surface like a tapestry . Over the years, the vertical stroke in Kristina's works grows into a point , she now gives her preference to oil, and the colorful surface of her latest canvases begins to resemble a mosaic. The artist uses vivid , saturated colors, which are mixed optically, like the pieces of smalt in mosaics. The most interesting thing is that one of the first copies that Kristina made as a child was a copy of the work of J. Signac . Since then, about 20 years have passed , many years of training in realistic painting have passed , but after going through the difficult path of traditions, she returned to the method of color decomposition, to the method that she met when she was 9 years old , the method used by pointillist artists. Now she is working on a project in which the surfaces of canvases with their characters are transformed into monumental images of mosaic panels, combining easel and monumental painting.
