Before the thunderstorm (2020) Painting by Dinara Aristo

Dinara Aristo was born in Chelyabinsk, Russia, where she currently lives. She has been practicing her art since 2016. She paints mainly landscapes and seascapes in oils, drawing inspiration from her travellings around Ural region and other countries. Dinara had a solo exhibition in 2019, Chelyabinsk. She also participated in three joint exhibitions (Chelyabinsk, June 2018; Ekaterinburg, February-March 2021; Ekaterinburg, March-April 2021). She has participated and won awards in numerous international shows and online exhibitions. Her works are in private collections in Russia and other countries.

"I live in the industrial city of Chelyabinsk, Russia, so I enjoy spending my weekends and holidays away from the city – in the countryside, going mountain hiking, travelling to other countries. Hence the love for nature and inspiration for future artworks for which I use my own reference photographs. Basically, I paint landscapes and seascapes in oils. On my canvas, I prefer vivid colors because they create an uplifting atmosphere, which we lack in everyday urban gray life. I hope the viewers can feel strong positive emotions, the colors of happiness and joy by looking at my paintings."
