I was born in 1967 in the Soviet Union, which generally surprised me, because I dreamed of being born a princess and not a pioneer. Therefore, my entire childhood was imbued with protest against banal and boring everyday life. I wanted to become a ballerina, write poems and stories, learn to play the piano, knit and sew unusual outfits for myself.
I have always been a creative person, but for some reason I studied at a physics and mathematics high school, where I got a gold medal. I graduated from Riga Technical University with a very romantic specialty: engineer, builder, technologist of reinforced concrete products and structures. I cannot answer the question of why I chose this specialty.
To my good fortune, a few years after college, the Soviet Union collapsed. I was able to start my own business. Very unexpectedly for me, I became the director of an advertising agency. Our agency was engaged in design and printing and worked for over years until the start of the war.
Passionate about photography, I was for many years tormented by the desire to draw what I saw. Convey the emotions I feel through colors and shapes. But I never learned to paint, which I regret very much.
But one day, for fine motor skills, I was advised to paint. I just took some paint and a brush and started drawing. My first painting was a flower meadow. An artist said that to learn how to paint roses, you just have to paint roses every day. In 2020 I moved to France where the universe allows me to paint on a daily basis. I have been painting for four years.
I like painting with acrylics. I work in the style of expressionism, impressionism. My main problem is Parkinson's disease; I can't always draw straight lines. That's why I joke that I paint in the style of Parksonism.
My creativity is my emotions, my perception of the world through color and shape.
I mainly draw nature. We all live in a very dynamic world and often don't notice the beauty around us. And the world is so beautiful!
I would like people, looking at my paintings, to feel this mood and remember that our main mission on earth is to live in harmony and be happy.
