About The Artwork

Acrylic matte, PVC, brush. When I posted this artwork on Facebook, it turned out that only one out of three people saw a chameleon on it. It really surprised me. I planned to paint artwork with a chameleon. I thought that this animal against the background of a red watermelon would look interesting. Everyone knows that a chameleon changes color depending on the background. The bright color of the watermelon was supposed to further distract the viewer from the animal. Yellow pears and a blue cup of coffee pursued the same goal. When I finished painting this artwork, I thought: wasn’t I highlighting the chameleon too much against the background of a still life? Maybe I needed to hide the animal stronger? But it turned out that I hid him enough. I know that I drew a chameleon and I see it well. If people do not know that there is a chameleon in the picture, then they do not immediately notice it. I did not want to give people a hint in advance what exactly to look for in my artwork, so I did not use the word "chameleon" in the title. The name of the picture is also a bit of a disguise. Each creature has its own food preferences: someone prefers coffee for breakfast, and someone eats wasps that fly to sweet fruits. This picture is very decorative and will look good in the interior. Bright pure colors will bring joy after the stresses of the working day, and a little funny trick with a disguise will be a wonderful entertainment for your guests who will see the picture for the first time.

I was born in Minsk, Belarussian SSR. I draw ever since I remember myself. I admire ethnographic art of various origins; also the works of Belarusian primitivist Alena Kish, who's quite not known to the world. My artistic inspirations are Ciurlionis, Saryan, Petrov-Vodkin, Kent, along with many others. I used to work with oil and pastel, lately I prefer tempera and acrylic matte - for their great decorative properties, velvety finish upon drying, vivid colours, etc. I am aspired by travel and learning, fascinated with ethnography, mythology and philosophy. My spheres of interest are folk traditions and cultures. I write poetry, eager to cooperate, curious, tend to change locations. I dream of a motor home-studio - to be able to travel and draw. Currently I reside in Minsk - but not for long, I guess... Родилась в Минске. Рисовала всегда, сколько себя помню. Восхищаюсь этнографическим искусством разных народов, творчеством белорусской примитивистки Алены Киш - про которую в мире ничего не известно. На становление меня как художника повлияли работы Чюрлениса, Сарьяна, Петрова-Водкина, Кента и многих других. Работала в техниках масляной живописи и пастели. Последние годы предпочитаю темперу и матовый акрил за их декоративные свойства, бархатистую поверхность при высыхании, яркие цвета и прочее. Вдохновение черпаю в путешествиях и познании нового. Увлекаюсь этнографией, мифологией и философией. Интересуюсь традициями и культурами разных народов. Пишу стихи. Открыта для сотрудничества, любопытна, склонна к смене мест проживания. Мечтаю о мастерской-доме на колесах, чтобы иметь возможность ездить по миру и рисовать. В настоящее время проживаю в Минске - однако полагаю, что это ненадолго...
