Cobalt Sunset (2024) Peinture par Inna Agadullina

I am a painter working primarily in oils. I graduated from an art school and continued with 1.5 years of one-to-one training focused on oil painting techniques. My work explores color, light, and expressive brushwork. 

Painting came to me from a need to release what words cannot hold. At some point my emotions grew too loud, and I found their outlet in the landscape. My works almost always contain contrast: the force of the elements and the calm that follows, a dark cloud and a bright clearing, the weight of a wave and the quiet surface where the sky is reflected. I am captivated by the moment when nature is both majestic and gentle: a storm that clears the air and a dawn that promises silence. That’s why my skies are full of movement, my water—of reflections, and on the horizon there are often birds in flight or a small boat: symbols of freedom and fragility, of choice and the journey.

I paint not a “view from the shore,” but a state of being—what I experience here and now. Sometimes it’s dense blue and violet masses of cloud; sometimes it’s thin peach bands of sunset, and between them a ray that finds its way. It’s important to me to leave the viewer space to breathe: to be able to stand inside my landscapes, hear the murmur, feel the freshness, and take away a little inner quiet. If one of my paintings has given you this feeling, then we have met exactly where nature wanted us to.
