АДМИРАЛ (2021) Painting by Anastasiia Smolnikova

Born and raised in a small village in the Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia. Now I live and work in the city of Yekaterinburg, Russia.

I have been fascinated by the visual arts since childhood and, in fact, am self-taught. Sometimes I attend exhibitions, courses and master classes in painting. In the past I was a nail artist, my passion for nail art grew into something more, so I became an artist.

I put my mood and energy into my works. I show the depth and color of each shade. Looking at the works you felt and understood the course of my thoughts, the power of color. In some works, I use volumetric drops, liquid pearls, so that the viewer can not only see all the beauty of the work, but also get tactile pleasure when he touches the painting. It is very important for me to convey the relief, structure, texture of the work. My paintings with meaning and symbolism. In them you can find answers to your questions, the main thing is not to be afraid to trust.

I write in styles: abstractionism, surrealism, abstract surrealism.

In conclusion, I want to say: at times I prefer to make canvases myself, from processing blanks to gluing and priming. This is a kind of meditation for me.
