Hello world!
Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start writing!
I was born in the former Soviet Union, a country with different cultures and traditions, which no longer exists. The blood of five different nationalities flows in my veins and my family have lived in different parts of our planet.
.
Before I came to Switzerland in 2004, I spent several years in Ukraine, Moldova and Russia. All this has shaped my worldview and attitudes, so I consider myself an inhabitant of planet Earth, a place that unites us all, regardless of nationality, religion and skin color.
.
Since childhood, I loved to draw and, on the advice of my school art teachers, I entered a classical art school without entrance exams and from the age of 11 began to study painting, drawing, composition, sculpture and other artistic subjects. My classical art education allowed me to master different techniques and styles, which frees me to choose between different materials and surfaces. I like to paint not only on canvas or paper, but also on ceramics, textiles, furniture and almost anything my brush can reach.
.
After graduating from high school, for a number of reasons (post-perestroika, financial difficulties, etc.), I went to study spatial environmental design at the St. Petersburg State University of Technology and Design, where the curriculum included art departments.
.
In 2004, I moved to Switzerland, where after a year of studying German, I began my studies at the FHNW in the field of architecture and successfully completed as a Master of Arts in Architecture.
.
Since 2012, I have been working in my specialty, but my creative ideas do not leave me. This year I decided to devote more time to my creativity. This is how a series of my works called “Universe” was born. Seeing the reaction of the public, I am sincerely happy and understand that with my creativity I am encouraging people and helping them get out of their everyday routine and plunge into their forgotten world of fantasy and sincerity.
.
My series of works called “Universe” are made primarily in mixed media and are three-dimensional. Sometimes the paintings are completely drawn by me, sometimes I use the collage technique. Initially, I process the photograph in digital format, then print it out, carefully stick it on cardboard, cut it out by hand and then complete the objects and parts of the drawing using different techniques and materials (pencils, watercolours, acrylic, pen, etc.).
.
I like to be socially engaged and want to contribute to making this world a better place, 10% of the purchase price goes to charity.
.
If you would like to do a portrait in any style, paint some decorative object or have any other ideas, do not hesitate to contact me directly. I will be happy to meet with you to discuss further work together.

With best wishes
