Let me introduce myself!
I was born in one of the most beautiful city’s of Russia, Saint-Petersburg. From my early childhood in The Studio of Hermitage to The Royal Academy Of Fine Arts (where I graduated in 2005) I studied painting. As a professional artist, I work a lot illustrating books and teaching students.
Life gave me the chance to live in 3 countries with absolutely different cultures, traditions and nature which of course reflects in my art. Nature is my inspiration and the expanses of my motherland, hot sands of Arab Emirates and emerald hills of Ireland give me passion and energy to create my art and help to make your art dreams come true.
There are more than 30 books published with my illustrations. In the United Arab Emirates, I established an Art studio where I taught painting to both children and adults, and already more than 500 students around the world draw and study with pleasure. Today I live with my family and work on the Emerald Island, in my workshop OLYA ART STUDIO, in Ireland, where nature itself inspires, helping to realize my ideas and projects.
