From the Artist... I was born and raised in the Far East region, in Vladivostok (Russia) and as long as I can remember myself, I have always been able to draw. I prefer to paint birds, animals, seascape and still lifes. I studied in the Art College in Vladivostok/Russia. Currently I live and work as an artist in Moscow.

I dreamed to become an artist since my early childhood. I began the drawing quite early, according to my mother's words, before I began to speak. I spent my childhood in the village, in the grandparent’s house. Therefore, since childhood, I was surrounded by beautiful nature, fields, river, pets.

I believe that everything has its own meaning or soul, whether it is an animal, or it is a plant, stone, water. Therefore, I always try to put life into anything I paint.
