Balanced roofs of Monsarz (Portugal) (2015) Painting by Nataliya Yatel

Natalia has an extensive art education(Dnepropetrovsk Art School, Painting Department, teacher Afanasyev V.I., and Charkov Academy of Design and Arts, Department of easel graphics, teacher Jachin I.I.). She participated in numerous national and international exhibitions. Natalia is the winner of the Art Weeks in Berlin(2011) and three times winner of the international exhibition of Ukrainian Art Week in Kiev and in St.Petersburg. She is a participant of the international festival «Messir», Turkey,Manisa (awarding of the Ukrainian Ambassador in Turkey). Many of Natalia’s works are in private collections in the USA, Norway, Japan, Israel, Turkey, Ukraine, Portugal and Russia.

Professional skill, warmth and sincerity of Natalia’s paintings can’t leave anyone indifferent. All her works are full of some magic positive energy that evokes a desire to see and enjoy them again and again. The main things that this artist wants to convey through her work are joy, happiness, freedom and spiritual values . An experience in implementation of impressions in artistic images is an inherent need for those who strive for beauty and obsessed with the idea of perfection of himself and those who are around him. An artist - is either a thinker, a poet and a kind of scientist with a keen sense of space and time, it is a person for whom each moment of life is a revelation that comes through inspiration.
Natalia works in various genres (portrait, landscape, still life, narrative compositions), which you can see in her works at the exhibition. But the main theme of the artist remains the Man and his inner world. If we talk about the technique, here we can see the realism, impressionism and expressionism in combination with postmodernism and experimental painting. Natalia is always in the state of development, looking for some new ways to express herself that is without doubt interesting to observe.
