I prefer to see the world as a magical place, and firmly believe that It’s up to us to see the reality that surrounds us with imagination. My work lives in this grey area between the real and the imagined – in memories, coincidences, associations. Many of my paintings are visual diary entries, a reflection of the people who surround me at home, or ones that I met while backpacking abroad. Because I believe that human existence is brimming with mixed emotions, my work tends to be emotionally complex and difficult to label with a single feeling.
For the past several years I have also been working on a series of 3D works in collaboration with my father, who lives in Russia. He carves creatures out of wood and I paint the worlds around them using a textured technique combining ink on paper and encaustic. The process provides for an amazing way to stay connected with one of the most important people in my life, and the resulting 3D paintings carry an unusual folk - surreal feel.
I work in a multitude of media, but most often in oil, ink, gouache, and encaustic. Feel free to contact me for more info on murals and portrait commissions.
