Sometimes I want to capture reality in all its details, and sometimes I just want to kick off from there.
I trust my impulses
I paint my impressions −
of people, of anything in the world.

Acting artist! Theatre is my passion and  my whole life, my everything! And paintings and drawings represent my longest monologue about life, love and me. I cannot help acting and painting.
An actress or an artist?
I am grateful that you came to see it!
Great Drama Theatre of Leningrad (BDT), Russian Drama Theatre in Tbilisi and the Yermolova Drama Theatre in Moscow.
I am forever grateful to those stages, actors, directors, and the audience!
My theatre
I give thanks to life for bringing theatre into my life, and thanks
to the theatre for becoming my life.

The main thing is to turn paints into colourful stories; to turn pencil lines into lifelines, and canvas and paper to become companions.
My art studio
I do not have an art studio. All I need is a table, paints, and brushes.
I am grateful, that you came to see it!!
I give thanks to life for bringing theatre into my life, and thanks to the theatre
for becoming my life.

I paint for my favourite kind of people: strong, audacious, and at the same time vulnerable, but always going straight to their goal.
Who do I paint for?
You will find everything in my work – you will find yourself.
