In early childhood, my love for painting was noticed by my mother.
Large sheets of drawing paper hung on the walls, and I would sketch characters from books and fairy tales. As a child, I was invited to the kindergarten to draw miniatures on children's lockers.
Then, at school, my art teacher recognized my abilities and advised my parents to enroll me in an art school. At the age of 13, I entered art school.
I remember the day of the entrance exams when I was told that I was a candidate for the second year externally. I was surprised that my abilities were rated so highly, as I never considered myself talented. I just loved to paint.
I was inspired by the work of Pablo Picasso, studying art history in school, and my entrance work, "Sketch of Autumn Leaves Stained Glass," was done in the technique of “Synthetic cubism”, which appealed to me at that time.
Later, the school presented my painting to the City Administration, where it adorned the walls of the local government building. One could say that it was my first exhibition at the city hall. Years of studying at the art school opened the doors to the beautiful world of art for me, and my profession later became associated with painting.
For almost 20 years, I also worked as a nail designer.

For almost 20 years, I also worked as a nail designer.
I painted small miniatures ranging from abstract seas to floral designs, volumetric sculptural elements, and miniature versions of the cosmos, adding gold foil and colorful stones. This laid the foundation for my love of textures and working with the small details.
I completed over 50 courses in design, miniature painting in watercolor and volumetric techniques, and miniature sculpture.
I obtained a diploma as a teacher in art and acrylic and gel modeling. I completed over 50 courses in design, miniature painting in watercolor and volumetric techniques, and miniature sculpture.
Later, I received training from contemporary artists from Slovenia, Russia, USA and Italy.
In my free time from work, I painted pictures, worked with epoxy resin, creating decor items and decorating some elements with gold, but the dream of devoting myself entirely to my creativity never left me. In the process of studying different directions in the world of art, my style and manner of conveying my vision of this world changed over time.
Now I am a full-time artist.
Abstract contemporary art inspires me greatly. It allows me to express my emotions and feelings that I want to share. Anything deep, distant, and incomprehensible to me arouses my keen interest.
Space, mist, the northern lights, the depth of the ocean, and clouds in the sky, changing their structure and mood—from dramatic and heavy to light, glowing, and whimsical. The sunrise and its sunset, all of this fascinates and inspires me.
In addition to abstract art, I am inspired by seascapes, mountain landscapes, and forests. I have written many poems inspired by my emotional state, and my paintings are like poetry that can be conveyed through the vision of this world, which can not only be heard but also seen, felt, and touched. I hope my art touches your heart.
