Beauty in every face, meaning in every stroke…

Alexandra is young Russian artist with a unique vision of the real life which she expresses in her pictures using various art techniques. Alexandra was born in the Ukraine in 1987 as a second child in the family. From the early childhood the girl showed great interest in painting and drawing, which was noticed by her parents who tried to encourage her interest in the arts and develop her skills.

At the age of 10 Alexandra started attending Smolensk Arts School, and at the age of 16 she entered the Department of Fine Arts and Graphics of Smolensk State University. Five years of the University studies and self-development perfected her skills, gave her profound knowledge of the arts schools and techniques, helped her to work out her own artistic style and vision of “life in the art”. Alexandra took a number of master classes from famous Russian artists and started learning more about realism – her favourite artistic school.

During her university years she organized a few exhibitions locally and proved to be a talented teacher while having her school practice. Her unique style was positively marked by some of her teacher and treated as a deviation from the classics by the others, but it was recognized by all.

Alexandra enjoys making portraits and believes that every face is beautiful in its own ways and it is becoming more beautiful while you are reflecting it on the paper (drawing or painting). And it is in the power of the artist to show the life of the face (emotions) on the paper……a real artist should be able to do that.

Recently Alexandra has got interested in the abstract art and is going to work more in that direction.
