Born in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. Throughout my school days art, mainly drawing except for school projects, was always a main focus for me. Although encouraged to seek an artistic future I chose not to but now, I am endeavouring to cultivate my creative self again experimenting with oil and pastels. I am extremely thankful for this opportunity and hope my contributions to the art world will eventually find places where they bring pleasure to its viewer and are enjoyed to their fullest.
